I am a children's book illustrator located in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. I have been writing stories and illustrating since I was a child. I wrote my first book when I was around 7 years old called "Pretty Party Ball," and my mother had to sew it together because it was too thick to staple. Since then, I haven't stopped drawing and have made several books for myself and for others and have learned how much work goes into making each one. I love to create colorful magical worlds that take me back to my own childhood. My next goal is to take everything I have learned and write and illustrate a book to be published. My dream projects would be a search-and-find book or a gamified book with lots of moving parts.
I have a BA in Global Studies from the University of Chapel Hill and love to learn new languages and eat food from all over the world. I love to learn and am currently learning Turkish, embroidery, and how to make 3-D paper art.
