I have always thrived creating imagery. Characters and stories have always fascinated me. These two factors are the foundation of my lifelong passion for comics and graphic novels.

As a cartoonist, story and drama are my focus. What is the character after? Will they get it? And what happens if they don't get it? I direct the actors in my images as I shape their emotions and gestures. I juxtapose text to image as I create story narration and character dialog. I design the sets, creating unique worlds for my characters to inhabit. I embellish the values and tones, establishing the mood. I choose specific scenes to include in the sequences, determining the tempo of the story. All of this I do in the pursuit of the beauty and resolution that comes with a satisfying story.

As an illustrator, the client is my focus. What do they need? What is the most effective way to communicate their message or story? How do I turn their ideas into high-quality evocative illustrations? With deep creative and technical expertise, excellent interpersonal skills, and strong work ethic, my clients get what they want when they need it.
