Senior🎓
Top SchoolTy Finck is a multidisciplinary creative entrepreneur and type designer with over a decade of experience crafting brand identities, digital products, and multimedia work for clients including Google, NBC Universal, and Chronicle Books. As co-founder and Creative Director at Relays and founder of Etcetera Type Company, he blends hands-on typography and web implementation with music, photography, and video production to deliver cohesive visual systems. His background spans freelancing, product-led game design, and academic advisory roles, showing an ability to move between art direction and technical execution.
