I write and illustrate comics that I self-publish, and manage an online store for Octopolis art and merchandise. I've organized educational programs and panels related to my work at libraries, museums, aquariums and conventions.

In 2025 I was a finalist for the Russ Manning Promising Newcomer Award for my comic, Octopolis. I wrote, illustrated, and published the graphic novel “Octopolis: Holdfast" after conducting a Kickstarter campaign in May 2024. The campaign earned >$32,000, over 400% of the target goal.

In my capacity as an artist I am currently represented by the Azantian Literary Agency.

I also provide design services and consultation on a freelance basis. Contact me for availability and rates.
