About me

I am based in New Yorkand while working in digital media using programs like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, ProCreate, and Sketchbook, I also work in various media like paint, graphite, colored pencils, ink, and more!  

I work in many styles.
My projects in the illustration and design industry include but are not limited to painting, cartoons, book covers, publication Illustrations, character design, graphic novels, comics, webcomics, illustrations for products like stationery and clothing, and so much more.

My outside interests in Egyptology and language + cultures studies and more, make me think outside of the box and have a unique perspective on all the projects I work on.
