About the Illustrator

As far back as I can remember, I was drawing Disney characters off the boxes of VHS tapes with my grandmother. This was back when getting in trouble for daydreaming and drawing pictures in elementary school was a regular occurrence. After taking every single art class available in High School, I was accepted at the School of Visual Arts where my drawing ability became more of an identity than a hobby. I picked up a paint brush for the first time in my life sophomore year and like most late learned skills, I was eager to make up for lost time. Taking classes at SVA and the Illustration Masters Class at Amherst College, I've had a chance to study with some of my idols. I thank them in giving me the ability to earn a scholarship from the Society of Illustrators 2009 Student Competition.
