I am a tenured professor of Illustration and Graphic Design at Cuyahoga Community College in Cleveland, Ohio. I love teaching, and the best part of my job is making positive, impactful connections with students and helping each student find their personal artistic voice.

​

As an artist, my goal is create expressive work with an emphasis on narrating a story and conveying human emotion and human experience with empathy and compassion.

​

I have a Master's Degree in Illustration from the Savannah College of Art & Design and a Master's in Education from Cleveland State University.
