I design poetry collection covers for the Community Literature Initiative—a nonprofit organization dedicated to diversifying publishing.
I have been professionally illustrating since early February creating portraits, character art, and picture book illustrations.
I have a great passion for storytelling, illustration, and design; am a renowned Noticer of Details™; work effectively at a fast pace; and strive to be a lifelong learner. I am so eager to bring your vision to life!
