I am a freelance illustrator living in Columbus, Ohio.
As a child, my favorite things to do were to play in the woods, read, draw, dream and allow my imagination to take me to far-off places.

I received my B.F.A. in illustration from Columbus College of Art and Design and I continue to observe nature, read, draw and let my imagination soar.
