I’m an illustrator, cartoonist, pattern designer, and animated GIF-maker from New York City. I received both my MFA in Illustration and my BFA in Cartooning from the School of Visual Arts (class of 2024 and 2018). I love drawing happy things, bright colors, making people laugh, and hot dogs.

I’m an illustrator, cartoonist, pattern designer, and animated GIF-maker from New York City. I got my BFA in Cartooning at the School of Visual Arts in 2018. Now I’m back at SVA as part of the MFA Illustration class of 2024. I love drawing happy things, bright colors, making people laugh, and hot dogs.
I was diagnosed with ADHD in my teen years and have been trying to navigate the world ever since (mostly with the help of google maps). When I’m not creating, I spend my time training to break the world record for most nostril flares in under one minute (I’m pretty close to beating it I swear)
