I am an illustrator and designer based in central Virginia. I studied illustration and design at VCU and The Illustration Academy. I love telling stories with images and typography, but above all, i love encouraging imagination.

Currently, I'm holding the fort down as a designer for The Flores Shop. The shop's focus is on branding within all media of advertising. We enable companies both large and small, new and old to tell their stories to the world.

In 2008, The Flores Shop's won bronze for our Christmas wrapping paper, for which I did hand-drawn typography and design. Also that year, my illustration, For the Sapling, was exhibited in the Juried VCU Communication Arts Show.

In 2010, my work was exhibited in the Juried Illustrators Club of DC, Maryland & Virginia Show, which included an illustration for Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde and my hand-made book, Debris from What Vanished. And before year's end, Coldplay's Exhibition Room featured my illustration for Sara Gruen's novel, Water For Elephants.
