Overview

One reason I wanted to study design was to learn more about publishing. Once I graduated from school, I started to make editorial illustrations and self-published my own printed matter. By doing this, I could explore different ways to show a variety of concepts and themes. I cultivated a creative process that I feel confident in. I can take a project from beginning to end and feel proud of the final deliverables.

Since publishing my own work, I have collaborated with various publishers designing book covers, illustrations, and layouts. The subject matter I have done work for has ranged from articles about fashion trends to serious non-fiction books. My enthusiasm has remained the same as when I first started working. There is no project that doesn't deserve thought and diligence from the designer.
