Hi, I’m David Rennie, a commercially focused graphic designer with over twenty years of experience in the production of design and graphics. I’ve developed a strong track record in professional, challenging environments where I’ve led graphics teams, met deadlines, and collaborated closely with clients to deliver effective visuals. Currently I’m the Studio Manager at Inkwell Print & Mail (since 2018), and I also serve as the main artist for DefyH8 Clothing. I have extensive hands-on experience with lithographic and silk screen printing, large-format output, and the Adobe Creative Cloud suite, while also working with legacy design tools. I enjoy troubleshooting files, preflighting for print, and turning concepts into high-quality finished pieces.
