Oxford resume template

Oxford is a quiet, letterhead-style layout. Your name is centered in EB Garamond, a double rule closes the header, and section titles are capitals with wide letter spacing over a fine accent line. Bullets use an en dash. It carries authority without any color beyond the accent.
