Illustration and Design

I am an illustrator and designer from Seattle, Washington. I layer and connect realistic images in abstract ways to explore bigger ideas. I am passionate about the power of visual solutions to create positive change, with a particular interest in the intersection of art and science. Please reach out if you’re interested in working together, I’d love to hear from you!
