Fun Facts About Me!
I love owls!
I love myths
and folklore.
Sci-Fi is my
favorite genre.
When I was in first grade, I told my class that when I grew up I wanted to be “an artist, an author, and a smoothie maker”. To follow my dreams, I graduated in 2022 from the Maryland Institute College of Art with an Illustration degree. After a few smoothie-related jobs in between, I am now a full-time freelance book and graphic novel illustrator! I'm based in Upstate South Carolina where I live with my two troublesome roommates, Oliver and Theodore (who also happen to be cats). I am most well-known for my work on the Junie B. Jones Graphic Novel series.
My favorite projects often involve humor, magic, and (most importantly) mischief. In my spare time, I tend to my wilting garden, draw dragons on important documents, and read a lot of sci-fi.
If you would like to work with me, please reach out to my agent,
Alex Gehringer, through the Bright Agency.
