Joshua works with companies in healthcare, fintech, and other consumer-facing industries. He loves new challenges, big or small. His most rewarding projects are those which help people lead better lives through improving their mental and physical health.

He is currently writing a book called “We Need to Talk: How to Have Hard Conversations with Anyone” for Rosenfeld Media. It’s due out in 2023.

He absolutely adores typography and has designed multiple typefaces, including Cosmata and Uptown Sans.

In his spare time, he tinkers with restoring old iPods and making art with skulls (not real ones, which would be weird).

Lastly, he designed this cool design shirt a few years ago.
