About
Welcome to my website! I am an artist and illustrator living and working with my sweet son in the beautiful Pacific Northwest city of Seattle, WA. We dubbed our cute new home and studio, The Tiny Treehouse! I create cute, playful, and quirky illustrations that evoke mood, nostalgia, adventure, and wonder.
I also enjoy heading off on adventures and road trips in nature as well as collaborating on art projects with my son. I love hearing and creating good stories of all kinds and I love animals. We have two kitties, a hedgehog, and a crow friend we feed peanuts from the treehouse balcony.
Originally from Massachusetts, I received my BFA from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design and an MA in Library and Information Science from Simmons College. I was an academic librarian for several years before venturing out into the art and freelance illustration world. I've shown my work in galleries nationwide including Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Seattle, Austin, and Reno and I've worked with some wonderful clients including Edible Reno-Tahoe, The Nevada Museum of Art, Bharat Babies, The Reno News and Review, and Reno Magazine.
Adventures ahoy!
