About

I’m a digital illustrator and visual artist based in Brooklyn with 5+ years of character-driven, narrative illustration and storyboard experience. I love turning loose ideas into clear visual stories—whether I’m creating on-the-spot character art for live events or building polished storyboard sequences for promotional campaigns.

I’ve worked with national brands including Nike and MasterCard (via Design Bridge), and I also maintain consistent illustration across social media and in-store signage for JackRabbit. With strong drawing and printmaking fundamentals plus fluency in Adobe tools and modern digital drawing workflows, I’m comfortable moving quickly under deadlines while keeping the final visuals engaging, readable, and on-brand.
