I am an illustrator and designer based in San Diego, California, working across garment and surface design. My practice is informed by a background in pattern design, hand-dyeing techniques, and bespoke tailoring, which shapes a material-focused approach to representation.

Alongside my studio practice, I work as an educator in illustration and digital design.
