I run a team of remote workers providing branding and design services. I'm alternately based in Tokyo and Sydney.
My career began in 1997 answering phones at an ad agency in Sydney. I went on to lead the design department.
In 1999, I spent six weeks in Nepal and trekked through the Himalayas on the Annapurna trail, hiking to the Tibetan border.
In 2000, while attending a design conference in Hong Kong, I was the target of an elobarate Blackjack scam.
In 2005 I enrolled in AWARD School, where I learnt to write ideas for advertising. I graduated as a top performer and went on to work as an art director for FNL.
In 2007 I returned to design, working at Jones Bay Wharf in one of Sydney's leading UX studios. After two years I began working freelance for Clemenger BBDO, Singleton Ogilvy and Mather, Massive, Razorfish, and Bauer Media.
In 2010 I relocated to Japan, working remotely while absorbing all the inspiration the landscape, cities and culture have to offer.
In 2014 I launched a font called Comic Neue, which was an instant internet sensation. It’s now available on Google Fonts.
In 2025, I became certified by Google as a UX Design Professional, learning how to apply Google's product design methodology.
I run an art project and brand called Ghoul, and an online store selling Japanese-themed design assets.
I've given talks at Hacker News, Spectrum Tokyo, and PechaKucha.
I post my adventures to Instagram. If you'd like to get in touch my DMs are open @craigrozynski
