I’m a fantasy story teller, author & illustrator based in Gunnison Colorado. Keen to work with the traditional mediums, ink, watercolor, and pencil.

I studied art Western State College in Gunnison Colorado, graduating with a BFA. Though I’d argue my whimsical education started early in my grandmother’s painting studio.

My debut picture book THE GREEN DUCKLING, is set for publication fall 2026.

Other stories in the works include: DANDELION CAKE, an anxious little dragon with grand plans to bake the perfect birthday cake for their beloved friend Earl. TROLL AND MAGPIE, two best friends learn what it means to truly love someone after a wish goes awry. And MAGIC MIM’s COTTAGE, the kittens learn seasonal spells and nature magic at Mim’s cozy cottage in the woods.

My novel in progress is a young adult fantasy about a young boy raised by mountain trolls. With the help of some unusual outcasts, Asklad uncovers the secrets of his past life so that he might heal the land. The jungle book, but with trolls, dragons, and a lot more magic.

I write for the weird kids, young and old, who love creatures (even the yucky ones) and who appreciate a hefty dose of whimsy. When I’m not in the studio I’m almost always outside in the garden, or on a mountain somewhere with my tiny dog.
