What I'm looking for

I am seeking creative roles where I can combine illustration and motion design to elevate brand storytelling, collaborate with teams, and continue growing as a visual storyteller.

I am a creative graphic designer and illustrator with experience in logo design, portraits, children's book illustrations, album covers, and freelance client work. I combine illustration and motion design to produce engaging visuals, managing projects from initial sketches through final digital artwork and publishing my first illustration in 2023.

I have taught art to kindergarten through 8th grade, planned age-appropriate lessons, and guided students in developing artistic voices. I am dedicated to using curiosity, perseverance, and adaptive creativity to translate complex information into clear, impactful visuals that elevate brand identity and support communication goals.
