My artistic talents were first discovered at the age of three, when I was found creating a mural on the dining room wall with a pastry brush and a can of Crisco. Although the work itself was never fully appreciated by my parents, my interest in art was. They quickly gave me more appropriate supplies. My passion for art grew, and I earned a BFA in Studio Art from the University of Texas in Austin, where I now live with my husband and son, a few doggies and one can of Crisco (for cooking only).

My clients include Alfred A. Knopf, Farrar, Straus and Giroux Books for Young Readers, Scholastic Book Club, Ideals Children's Books, Ladybug Magazine, Clubhouse Jr. Magazine, Highlights, Highlights High Five, Hazelden Educational Publishing, and Red Leaf Press.
