teaching

I love to teach! Currently I teach group workshops and classes about risograph printing, digital illustration, zine making, page layout & typography. I also love working one-on-one on projects and publications and I’m always happy to do consultations about risograph printing, maintenance, and the joys and trials of running these quirky machines.
