I am a children's book author and illustrator. I have written 10 books and illustrated more than 85 books for a variety of publishers, including Scholastic, Random House, Penguin, Grosset & Dunlap, HarperCollins and Simon & Schuster. I have enjoyed creating many Hidden Picture Puzzles for High Five and Highlights Magazine and I just illustrated a story about the solar eclipse for Click Magazine.

I also have extensive experience creating illustrations for the educational and religious markets in black line, grayscale and full color. I am comfortable gearing my art for any age group or grade level.
