About My Art

I’ve always been drawn to visual storytelling—the process of taking an idea, a mood, or a half-formed concept and turning it into something people can actually see and connect with.


My background is rooted in illustration, with a BFA in Illustration from Syracuse University, but over the years my work has expanded into concept art, graphic design, branding, writing, and e-commerce. I’ve worked both as a freelance creative and as a business owner, which has taught me to think beyond simply making something look good. I think about the audience, the story, the purpose behind the work, and how all of those pieces fit together.


Much of my personal work is influenced by fantasy, history, nature, and worldbuilding, and I’m especially interested in projects that need a strong sense of atmosphere and narrative. Whether I’m developing a character, creating an illustration, designing a visual identity, or helping shape a larger creative concept, I enjoy the early stages where ideas are still flexible and there’s room to explore.


I’m always looking for opportunities to collaborate with people who care about thoughtful design, distinctive visuals, and telling a good story.
