I’m a DC-based illustrator and designer. I have a passion for translating words into imagery that convey not only their meaning but also their mood and spirit. I love reading, conceptualizing and incorporating subtle wit and humor in my pieces. My work is mostly digital but also involves some traditional line work and textures. When I am not at my Cintiq, I can be found in my studio getting messy with my inks and paint as I continue to explore the power in the silent communication of art.
