VISUAL JOURNALIST, DESIGNER, EDITOR

Thank you for taking a look at my visual journalism portfolio.

With ten years of experience in freelance editorial illustration, working with clients including The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, LA Times, and more, I am passionate about working in news visuals. From 2020 to 2024, I gained valuable experience working full time in the fast-paced newsroom at Axios, ultimately serving as the Associate Visuals Editor. Most recently, I have been designing and producing the branding, visuals styles, and illustrations for the non-profit newsletter resource, Humanizing History. I also teach illustration at the college level, guiding students to develop skill sets for animation, conceptual illustration and collages for editorial applications, as well as many other communication and storytelling approaches.
