In this episode, we sit down with Jamie Clarke, a designer who's worn all the hats—from web design to founding his own type foundry.

Jamie opens up about the power of community and how networking played a pivotal role in his creative journey. He also takes us through his evolution as a designer and gets real about the financial side of type design. Plus, we dive into a hot topic: AI and its growing impact on typography.
