Over a decade of experience as an animator/character designer/storyboard artist taught me how to create appealing, expressive, and compelling illustrations that tell the story clearly, and I’ve learned how to collaborate with other creatives seamlessly.

I’ve written my own books as well so I understand the struggles and needs of writers. Let me help you bring your story to life, give you the visual anchor so your characters can take flights of the imagination.

To me, story is king, but illustration is queen, the art should not merely complement the written word, but captivate the readers and make them want to come back to your book again and again, finding something new every time. (I love hiding Easter eggs!)

I adjust the style of illustrations to perfectly fit the tone of your manuscript, let’s work together to make your book a reality!
