I received my BFA from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design where I majored in illustration and minored in communication design. I have interned as an illustrator and book designer at Orange Hat Publishing where I published my second book, Bear Goes to the Donut Shop.As an illustrator, I use watercolor, pencil, ink, acrylic and digital to create my characters and their stories. I wrote and illustrated two books (Bear Goes to the Donut Shop and The Fisherman).
