I'm a natural science illustrator and nature painter from DeLand, in the heart of Central Florida. Building on art studies as an undergraduate (Stetson ’09), I have sharpened my skills through Yale University's Natural Science Illustration program.
My art is a testament to my love of creativity, nature, and learning. It builds on my background in the library sciences, blending information literacy with an eye for aesthetic.
When I'm not illustrating, I'm documenting my local flora and fauna through photography, experimenting with surreal/abstract mixed media art, creating electronic music, and spending time with my wonderful family.
You can follow my work on Instagram, where I post regularly.
