Project Case Studies
Cabells is the complete source for academic journal info, evaluation metrics, and submission details—helping to guide researchers and institutions in getting the most impact from their research.
As Design Director for Cabells, I’ve worn many hats.

I favor holistic systems and long-term solutions.
