Amy Hood

Amy Hood is a co-founder and principal designer at Hoodzpah, a brand identity and type design studio based in Southern California collaborating with clients like Disney, 20th Century, Nike, RedBull and more. She is the font designer behind Palm Canyon Drive, Beale, Lone Pine, and more and her fonts have been used in everything from Taylor Swift music videos to feature films like Palm Springs. Amy is a die hard Lakers fan, and when she's not yelling at the refs through her tv she can be found at the beach working on her Smashball backhand or in line at the local panaderķa stocking up on conchas.

Amy and her twin sister Jennifer are co-authors of "Freelance, and Business, and Stuff: a Guide for Creatives" based on the Professional Practices class they taught at Laguna College of Art and Design in Laguna Beach, CA.
