Overview I’m a veteran newspaper editor and print designer with decades of experience producing deadline-driven publications, including daily newspapers, magazines and recurring special sections. I specialize in print-first editorial layout — work that needs to be accurate, readable, visually coherent and ready for press on schedule. My background on daily copy and design desks means I understand the full production cycle. I design content-rich pages, write and refine headlines, manage story flow and ensure typography and layout support the journalism rather than distract from it. I’m equally comfortable working within established templates or building flexible layout systems that can be reused issue after issue. I’ve designed publications from cover to cover, collaborating closely with editors, reporters, photographers and advertising teams to balance editorial priorities, visual hierarchy and production realities. Clients rely on me not just for design but for editorial judgment and calm execution when deadlines are immovable.

I’m accustomed to juggling multiple sections, adjusting layouts as copy and photos evolve and delivering clean, accurate pages on deadline — every cycle. I work collaboratively, communicate clearly and take responsibility for the final product. Clients hire me when they need someone who understands print journalism workflows and can be trusted to produce professional, press-ready work without hand-holding. Focus I work exclusively on print-first editorial design and recurring publications. If you publish on a regular schedule and need a reliable designer who understands newsroom standards and production realities, I’m a strong fit.
