Objective:

My aim is to offer my illustration services primarily to the storybook market, covering a range of ages from very young to grown-up, and everything in between. I hope to offer a variety of styles and approaches in order to best fit the broad approach to storytelling in the market today, as well as to express my own stories in my voice. I also wish to produce work for the book and gaming market, from sci-fi/fantasy novels to board/card/roleplaying game materials.

Strengths:

Lively and fun character design, creative use of color and textures, and a commitment to accurately meet the creative demand and desire of my client.

  • 2004 - 2008 B.F.A. in Illustration from the Academy of Art, San Francisco CA
