Every story begins with a single idea—a quiet moment, a beloved character, a landscape waiting to be explored. My passion is transforming those ideas into illustrations that invite readers to pause, imagine, and connect.
I work across children's literature, speculative fiction, branding, and fine art, creating illustrations that balance warmth, atmosphere, and thoughtful detail. Whether I'm designing expressive animal characters for the Prairie Paws Project, illustrating sweeping worlds for speculative fiction, or painting landscapes inspired by the American prairie, my goal is always the same: to create artwork that serves the story.
My artistic background includes traditional media such as colored pencil, watercolor, acrylic, and graphite, alongside digital illustration. I enjoy blending classical artistic techniques with modern publishing workflows to create illustrations that feel both timeless and contemporary.
As the illustrator for Observer, Book Two of the Continuity Cycle, and a creative collaborator on the Prairie Paws Project, I'm grateful for opportunities to help bring meaningful stories into the hands of readers of all ages.
When I'm not illustrating, you'll usually find me sketching new ideas, experimenting with color, or finding inspiration in nature, architecture, and the quiet beauty of everyday life.
I believe every illustration should do more than decorate a page—it should invite someone into the story.
Whether you're an author, publisher, nonprofit, or business looking for original artwork, I'd love to learn more about your project.
