Hi there! I am a freelance illustrator based in the Bay Area, California. I graduated from Art Center College of Design with a BFA in illustration. For the past three years, I was an in-house illustrator at Google, but now I’m back pursuing freelance full-time! I love combining humor, color, and sassy characters to create my work :’)
