Overview
I'm a book cover designer and illustrator specializing in all genres, with emphasis on fiction, memoirs, outdoors/adventure sports, and travel. I also create illustrations for interiors or editorial publications.
I worked at Penguin Random House as a book cover designer for the Penguin Books / Viking Books / Penguin Classics imprints before leaving to open my own design studio. My experience at these flagship imprints means that I know exactly how to make clients' books look like a bestseller.
I work with publishers of all sizes, with a specialty in working with self-published authors. I'm familiar with the Amazon KDP and IngramSpark formats and can help authors with all aspects of the cover design portion of their self-publishing process. I also offer social media graphics services—I can create banners and other images for social media and promotion of books.
I believe the process of designing a great cover is all about collaboration, and I work closely with each author or publisher until everyone is thrilled with the outcome.
Get in touch—I'd love to hear about your book project!
