Illustration Work
NOAA | 2025 | Photoshop, Illustrator
Illustration is a consistent thread across very different contexts. The same skillset that produces a scientific poster also produces a brand mark or a storybook character. Only the application changes.
At NOAA I contributed illustration work supporting national communications initiatives, including commemorative posters, stickers, brochures, and anniversary graphics for the National Marine Sanctuary system. That work required translating complex scientific and conservation concepts into imagery that felt approachable and inviting.
The same instinct shows up everywhere else on this page — in brand illustration for Peninsula Explorer, and in narrative character work for a children's book project. Different audiences, different tones, same underlying practice: use imagery to make ideas land.
The Peninsula Explorers
Kids' Book Illustrations | 2026 | Photoshop, Illustrator
Originally developed as part of Peninsula Explorer, this children's book project let me explore narrative illustration and character development.
My work was selected for The Art of Children's Publishing, a juried exhibition at the Washington State Convention Center in Seattle (August–December 2026), presented by SCBWI Western Washington. My work reflects the same love of place, character, and story that runs through everything I creates on the Peninsula.

Personal Projects | 2025 | Photoshop, Illustrator
Alongside professional work, I continue to apply illustration across personal and exploratory projects to refine my style and expand its role within narrative systems.
Below is a selection of illustrated work created for both independent and collaborative efforts.
