ABOUT ME

I have my dream job: I get to draw all day. I make playful, inclusive illustrations for everything from picture books to apps. I am inspired by plants, animals, architecture, and people. My favorite mediums to work in are gouache, crayon, watercolor, and ink. I like to draw on my iPad, too. Currently, I live in Seattle with my partner, Sara, and a mischievous little dog named Dziga. When I am not drawing or painting, you can find me snowshoeing, eating bread, or riding my little silver motorcycle around rural Washington state.
