Welcome to My New Illustration Home

Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here.

This new site is a home for my illustration work, with a special focus on nonfiction picture books. I’m deeply inspired by projects like my work on I Am the Thirsty Desert and hope to continue creating books that blend art, science, and story to spark curiosity about the natural world. I’m especially drawn to true stories that feel a little bit magical at first glance, but are firmly rooted in real phenomena.

That said, I’m always open to a range of illustration projects, and I’m also nurturing several of my own nonfiction book ideas that I’m excited to bring into the world.

At the heart of my work is a belief that helping young people feel a sense of belonging—to one another and to the living world around them—is more important than ever. I want to inspire fascination, wonder, and curiosity. I want kids to see that they aren’t just connected to nature—they are a part of it. And through that understanding, I hope to help foster care, stewardship, and responsibility for the world we share.

Thank you for stopping by. I hope you’ll linger, explore, and maybe even imagine something new alongside me.
