I've always had a love for art and design and wanted to be a graphic designer as soon as I learned what one was. After design school, I worked on Steelcase's global design team before moving to California, working for a couple branding agencies, and eventually starting my own freelance design studio called Format. I'm a systems thinker whose approach leans toward simplicity and modernism. A belief in the principles of international-style design paired with a continual seeking of knowledge and growth are what keeps me moving forward.

Give me a shout at matt@helloformat.com if you want to work together, nerd out about grid systems in graphic design, or just say hello.
