Children's Books Author and Illustrator

I'm an author and illustrator who enjoys elucidating the curious minds of kids about the lesser-known, quirky critters in nature, whether under a log in the forest or under a brick in the city. I'd call my writing voice "humorously informative." 

 

I grew up loving art and nature equally, making friends with small creatures that go unnoticed, especially tiny land snails. 

 

Current Book Projects

My current projects are writing and illustrating picture books for kids on the topics of snails, fish, insects, and poop. ​

 

I'm currently in search of an agent who could represent me as a nonfiction author/illustrator of nature topics to children's book publishers.

Published Books

I authored these hi-lo children's books, part of Black Rabbit Books "Hi Jinx" series, 2022.
