Designer, artist, educator and lover of all things printed. Originally from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, I am Professor of Art in the Department of Art & Art History at The University of Mississippi, where I have been teaching graphic design and letterpress classes. I learned letterpress printing for the first time at Penland School of Crafts and returned to set up a small classroom in the Art Department. The Beginning and Intermediate Letterpress classes are quite popular across disciplines, but especially those concentrating in Graphic Design and Printmaking.
