Illustration — Art that tells a story.
I create whimsical, expressive illustrations rooted in imagination and human connection. My work includes art licensing, editorial and commercial illustration, custom artwork, and hand-painted portraits for individuals, organizations, and brands.

Art Workshops — Develop your creative voice.
I teach drawing, watercolor, and illustration to adults through welcoming, hands-on workshops in Portland and throughout Oregon. My classes help participants build skills, experiment with materials and techniques, and develop confidence in their own creative practice.

Coaching — Create a new story.
I coach changemakers, leaders, writers, researchers, funders, and other purpose-driven professionals who are developing ideas, projects, or new directions in their work. Together, we clarify the vision, bring structure to complex ideas, and identify practical paths forward.

I start by listening—to your ideas, your goals, and what you’re trying to create. From there, I combine imagination with thoughtful structure to help turn a vision into something tangible, whether that’s an illustration, a creative practice, or a project taking shape.

My illustration practice is rooted in drawing by hand. I work primarily with watercolor, ink, and digital drawing, combining traditional and digital tools as needed. I do not use generative AI to create my illustrations.

In my workshops and coaching, I create space for experimentation, reflection, and forward movement. I offer enough structure to help you find your way, while leaving room for curiosity, creativity, and your own way of doing things.

From startups to seasoned brands, we partner with people who care about doing things right—and doing them well.My clients and students include:

• Individuals commissioning meaningful custom artwork, including pet and home portraits.

• Changemakers and purpose-driven professionals—including leaders, funders, directors, writers, and researchers—who have an idea or vision and want support bringing clarity, structure, and momentum to what comes next.
