ABOUT

I’m an illustrator and designer born in New Jersey, baked in Japan, hardened in New York, and softened in Oregon.  I have a BFA in Illustration at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA and will follow interesting work wherever it may take me. I have extensive experience in Japanese translation, but after some soul searching and multiple quarter-life crises, took the leap into my true passion of telling stories through art. And though translation isn’t my calling, I draw much of my inspiration from Japanese nature, mythology, and fiction. I also enjoy fitness and bitter sarcasm, am the middle of three brothers, and have never felt overlooked as a result, thank you very much.
