Overview
I am currently booking for fall and winter (2023) and spring (2024).
I am an illustrator who has spent a decade as an in-house illustrator for Rainstorm Publishing, Parragon Publishing and Kidsbooks Publishing. Today I freelance so I can take on a broader range of projects!
My work ranges from educational workbooks, activity books, puzzles, picture books, easy readers, novelty books, coloring books and MORE! I have 15 years experience illustrating for kids ages birth to teens with close to 75+ published books globally.
I work from home with 3 furry studio assistants. I love to help author's bring their book to life!
