ILLUSTRATION GALLERY:
I graduated from the Northwest College of Art & Design in 2005 with a BFA in Visual Communication and a double-major. For the last 16 years, I have freelanced as an illustrator, with a special focus on graphic novels and game art. I have a strong preference for fantasy and sci-fi themes and I love to experiment with new styles and influences. I like to think of myself as being highly “customer-service” oriented in my freelance practice–most of my clients are repeat customers due to my communication skills and dedication to embracing critiques to deliver superior results. I don’t post my prices online, but I’m accustomed to working with solo-creators and indie publishers, so if you have a project in mind that you think I’d be a good fit for, please reach out at the email below.

COMICS/SEQUENTIAL ART GALLERY:
I love to do sequential storytelling; I’ve been published as penciller/inker/colorist and letterer. I’m happy to work in any of those roles, though my personal preference is for pencils or colors. Below are samples of my work, please feel free to reach out if you have a project you think I may be a good fit for.
GRAPHIC DESIGN GALLERY:
For the past 10 years I have worked as a graphic designer doing pre-press for a screen-printing and embroidery company in the greater Seattle Metro area. I also freelance as a graphic designer, and have done logos and ads for small businesses ranging from realtors to night clubs and everything in between.

Custom Art Print designs I worked for several years at a small print studio that created custom posters and artwork; these are a sample of over 5,000 original artworks I created during my time there. These are famous quotations developed through text-based graphic design and printed on actual dictionary pages from vintage copies of dictionaries found at thrift stores. They were one of our top sellers.
Personal Brochure for conventions I designed this brochure for my table at conventions; it’s been important to me to have a consistent “brand” for my work, so you can see thematically familiar elements across most of my logos and printed materials.
