I’m Los Angeles-born, Boston educated, and Antwerp located. I’ve spent my whole life being a creative in one form or another, but it wasn’t until I moved to Antwerp to get my Masters in Global Management that I realized I could take my background in business and use it as a tool to jump-start my creative career.
I bring surrealism and comedy to my illustrations so that a little bit of me shines through all of my work. I’m the least favourite in the office because I am constantly bothering the secretary (our dog) and always have headphones on. If I’m not at my desk, I’m in the kitchen!

Projects
- Ghostshrimp Workshop - Production DesignI took an amazing workshop with the incomparable Ghostshrimp and this was the last week of the workshop. We were tasked with creating one exterior and two interior illustrations of your ideal "childhood clubhouse". This was mine. I had a great time pushing these illustrations to really give you, as the viewer, the feel of the people living in this place.
- “Hear Me”: a neo-noir music video to shake your butt to.We recently had the exciting opportunity to direct, illustrate, and animate a music video for The Buttshakers’ song “Hear Me,” off their latest album Arcadia. We had a great time collaborating with the band on the development of the neo-noir style they wanted the song’s story to be portrayed in.

- Deliveroo Zodiac IllustrationsOne of the many fun projects we’ve had the opportunity to do for Deliveroo was to create a series of zodiac signs in their unique illustrative brand style. We reimagined all the signs as all different kinds of food, drinks, and treats so they could connect horoscopes to a variety of their tasty offerings.
