I love to illustrate animals and nature, and enjoy exploring topics of community and connection in my work. Originally from rural Canada and now based in Seattle, I have always been inspired by the natural world around me. My illustrations are defined by their bright and earthy colour palettes, mix of textures, and the subtle personality in the characters I create.

I’d love to connect on projects for packaging illustration, social & web graphics, textile or surface design, seasonal campaigns, brand spot illustrations, and more, so if you have something in the works you think I'd be a good fit for, please reach out!
