I’m an award-winning illustrator based in San Francisco, represented by Illo Agency. I create playful, vibrant illustrations for babies and toddlers, focusing on cute characters and busy scenes, where I bring joy to my work using color, texture, and pattern.

With a background in Art History and Arts Management, my artistic skills are complemented by formal education. I work in both vector and raster techniques, but every project begins with sketches on paper, helping me explore ideas before moving to digital.
