I likes to make illustrations inspired by nature and folk art. I studied Russian in college, and I have spent a lot of time traveling in Russia and around Europe, which has influenced much of my work. I like to use lots of media! Watercolor, gouache, and  colored pencil are my favorites, but I also make fine art paintings in oil, and some of my work is digital as well.

I live in Western Massachusetts with my family, where I like to hike, garden, sew, and play the piano

I am currently seeking representation as a picture book illustrator.
