I'm a visual creative based in Los Angeles, working across illustration, design, and art direction. My work spans campaign assets, brand systems, packaging, and motion — always built around strong visual storytelling.
Over the past five years I've worked with brands like Spotify, Marvel, Wizards of the Coast, Microsoft Gaming, Sony Interactive Entertainment, Bethesda, and the LA Times, primarily through studios like Sarofsky, Instrument, and Hammer Creative. My illustration work has been recognized by American Illustration, Communication Arts, 3x3, Society of Illustrators, and Graphis, among others.
Entertainment and music have always been at the center of what I do — from album packaging and artist visuals to game campaigns and title sequences.
