Profile

As a versatile illustrator with solid graphic design skills I create customized images for businesses to help them shape their visual brand identities. I work both digitally and in paper, illustrating for websites, presentations, newsletters, various printed collateral, and more. While I have the freelancer's privilege of creating graphics for a wide variety of industries—food, fitness, health, arts—I do have a penchant for the children's market, picture books in particular.
