I grew up just outside of Philadelphia, then lived in New York City for 9 years. That’s where I earned my BFA in illustration from Parsons The New School for Design, and my BA in Creative Writing from Eugene Lang College.
After graduating, I spent the decade that followed working in cross-functional roles as a designer-who-illustrates, first in New York, then in Chicago and remotely.
In 2020, the pandemic brought me to Ames, Iowa, where I’ve been focusing on freelance work, as well as personal projects like comics, poetry, and picture books.
I’ve also taken up the enjoyable (but messy) hobbies of pottery and gardening, requiring a bit of a wardrobe reconciliation.
There’s also Daydronk – my biweekly illustrated newsletter in which I choose a different beverage to serve as a memory-catalyst for a short essay or comic.
Lastly, I will be opening an online shop in Summer 2024. Subscribe to my mailing list below to be notified when it’s ready!
