I’ve always been interested in type and design.
From an early age, being a graphic designer
seemed to be a foregone conclusion.

In 1990, that dream became a reality
when I graduated from Sheridan College, in Oakville, Ontario.
Armed with a strong background in colour,
typography and layout,
i’ve held a number of positions in the design field since.

In 2005, thanks to some great friends,
I found myself laying claim to an antique
Chandler & Price platen press,
saving it from the metal scrap bin.
Jackson Creek Press was born.
Now, I have a creative outlet
which does not involve Photoshop layers,
print-ready pdf’s or the delete key...ahhh!

Fall of 2006 saw Jackson Creek Press
acquire an F.A.G. Proof Press,
and an 8 x 10 Gordon platen jobber with treadle.
Along with the presses came a
California Job Case which originally was owned
by Cooper & Beatty in Toronto.
Our type collection is extensive and includes
a wide array of fonts in wood and lead.
