Brian grew up in Rhode Island. If you thought you’d never know anyone from that state, well you do now. His childhood dream was to travel on horseback to his remote cabin in the woods, where he would write stories all day long. While he still doesn’t own a horse (or even know how to ride one), his love for writing never died. After years working as an industrial designer, Brian brings his love for sketching into his children’s illustrations. He enjoys working in kid lit because drawings become more than just lines and color on a page; they bring out laughter, playfulness, and imagination. You can find him drawing funny pictures with Nellie, his better half in life and in their author-illustrator team.
