With a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Illustration from Savannah College of Art and Design, I've hopped from coast to coast, traversing New York City sidewalks and soaking up that California sunshine before landing in North Carolina as a freelance illustrator. My husband serves as constant muse and overall funny man, while our two ingenious children create chaos...you know, in a fun sort of way. Together we're one amusing mess! 

​

Aside from doodling, I love losing myself in a good book, venturing to the movie theater solo, bonding over board games, feeling the wind blow through my curly mane while riding a bike, walking like my life depends on it, and belting out karaoke for my kids' amusement. Below are some professional tidbits.
