Biography

Wolff was born in 1990 in New York City but raised in Minneapolis and London. He attended St. Paul Academy and Summit School in Saint Paul, Minnesota. He then matriculated to Skidmore College, where he played as a forward on the school's NCAA Division III soccer team.
Wolff received a Bachelor of Science in management and business from Skidmore College in 2012. He then studied at Parsons School of Design, receiving his Associate of Applied Science degree in Graphic Design in 2014.
After graduating from Parsons, he began work as a graphic designer for Upper 90 Soccer, a soccer equipment retailer in New York City. From January 2014 to September 2015, he worked at New York City FC as the in-house graphic designer.
He then went on to work for Nike, Inc. as a graphic designer in their global football apparel department. At Nike, he designed the 2018 FIFA World Cup kits for the national association football teams of Nigeria and France. The Nigeria kits were quickly sold out and broke pre-order records, and they were nominated for a Beazley Design of the Year award.
In 2021, Wolff co-founded Vermont Green FC, an amateur team based in Burlington, Vermont playing in USL League Two. He also designed the team's crest and branding, which was unveiled in February 2022. The team places an emphasis on environmental activism, and Wolff says he has been working with manufacturers to make the team's jerseys out of recycled and sustainable materials.
In 2022, Wolff designed the logos and uniforms for the Minnesota Twins of Major League Baseball. Wolff grew up a fan of the team.
