Hello! Most of my work is as the publisher & designer of Feral Dove Books. I’m looking to work independently with authors in a cover designer, interior designer, or editor role. Through Feral Dove, I have experience working with writers like Alexandrine Ogundimu and Josiah Morgan. I currently have books lined up with Grant Maierhofer, Damien Ark, and others. My tastes in design lean more toward the unorthodox or experimental. I’m looking to work with writers who want to expand the idea of what a book as a physical art object could be. Please feel free to email or dm me on the Feral Dove twitter/instagram if you’re interested in working together. Thank you for your time & interest!
