About

I’m a children’s illustrator with several published books and a passion for crafting worlds where imagination runs wild. My process begins with pencil and paper sketches, then blossoms digitally into vibrant characters and rich environments. Whether it’s a mischievous fox in a moonlit forest or a curious robot exploring a candy-colored city, I love bringing stories to life through expressive art that connects with young readers.

My day rate is $250.

I was invited to contribute an illustration to a non-profit initiative supporting children in Portugal. As part of the project, I received a story written by a child and created a custom illustration to accompany it. It was a beautiful opportunity to help amplify a young voice through visual storytelling, and to support a cause that celebrates creativity and empowers children.

For the first two titles in this series, I created the complete visual package: interior illustrations, cover art, and endpapers. My goal was to build a cohesive and engaging visual narrative that complements the text and enhances the reader’s experience from cover to cover. I approach each project with a strong sense of storytelling, ensuring that every illustration supports the emotional tone and pacing of the book. illustrator
