About Me: Designer and journalist Justin Beckett founded 1216.co as a hub for both his design work and football analysis.
Justin works as the Creative Design Director for One United USA, the official membership program for football club Manchester United in the States. His work has been featured at conferences and events and in pubs across the nation and is closely watched by officials at the world’s greatest football club.
As for his “day” job, Justin serves as the Production Team Leader for Cox Media Group’s Ohio operations. At CMG, he recently spearheaded the prototyping and redesign of the Dayton Daily News and 3 other daily newspapers. He also works with copy desk staff on digital training and with marketing on promoting the new-look paper.
On the side, Justin is an avid football fan, a music and concert fanatic, and a world traveller. He’s a creative thinker with an analytical mind; an American who can break down complex soccer tactics; a staunch music critic who’s instruments are collecting dust; and a person genuinely in love with life.
