CJ works for Font Bureau where he brings together the technical and creative aspects of font making. He first got hooked on typography and typeface design while studying with Ed Benguiat at The School of Visual Arts in New York. Later he completed a Post-graduate Certificate in typeface design from The Cooper Union, where he also assisted Sumner Stone and Sara Soskolne in teaching typeface design.

Always happy to get his hands dirty, he enjoys sign painting, print making and amateur wood working. He attends many type-related events in New York City and keeps track of them on TypeNY.com, his type calendar website. Also, he recently designed a pangram poster series for The Cooper Hewitt Design Museum shop using iconic pre-digital sans serifs.
