Who I am

I’m a senior graphic designer, realism artist, and SCBWI member author based in North Carolina. My work spans global audiences through Amazon KDP and IngramSpark, combining strategic design with storytelling—bringing the same level of craft and clarity to brand identities as I do to books for young readers.
