slide

I design beautiful, functional websites, prepare book layouts, and whip together posters and other printed works.

I am a scholar of East Asian religions and culture. I have deep interests in anarchism, Chinese and Japanese Buddhism, and the ethics of living with/in/through modernity.

      Designing the website for McMaster University’s URBAN project was an interesting challenge, because it meant appealing to the usually staid academic audience, while also aiming for a more dynamic, general audience. URBAN stands for Urban-Rural Biomonitoring and Analysis Network. So it’s basically about engaging normal people in scientific, ecological work. For instance, there is a [...]
