Welcome


world-building

I strive to increase children’s exposure to animals & plants in the natural world – encouraging respect for biodiversity and love for the aliveness of nature.


heartfelt stories

I enjoy sharing real issues with some magical realism – expansive imaginings offer space for a child to work through difficult times, keep hope alive, while figuring out real-world transformations. Different worlds colliding and intersecting also enables characters to face issues, or model solutions for change and connection in our world.


character designs

I prefer to create characters that reflect rich diversity & individuality.
