BIO
I’m an illustrator, author, and artist working primarily in children’s publishing. I create my art in a variety of mediums but especially love drawing with Posca paint pens and Tombow brush pens.
In 2020, my debut illustrated book, Layla and the Bots: Happy Paws, was published by Scholastic. Following shortly after were the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th books in that series.
Besides making books, I also write weekly essays for my Substack newsletter (where I share the process behind my books) and teach classes on Skillshare.
