Bio
Hi I’m Logan, I consider myself a graphic designer, but primarily working towards becoming a bespoke type designer. I’m originally from Indiana.
I’ve had the opportunity for my work to be shown at/on Typeforce, the Grunwald Gallery, RVTV.com (Rick Valicenti’s production company), within various installations at Indiana University, and the Fuller Projects.
I started my career at the design studio Thirst/3st. At Thirst I was fortunate enough to work with Rick Valicenti and Bud Rodecker on numerous projects for various clients in Chicago. The day to day interaction with these influential design figures provided the foundational skills to create impactful and meaningful design work as well as give me a humble approach to what it means to be a graphic designer.
Outside of the studio environment I enjoy cooking, art, and creating 3D worlds for my design work to live in.
