cartoonist / illustrator

I devoured newspaper comics as a kid. What could be better than captivating drawings and witty storylines? At the age of 7, I knew nothing could be better, or funnier, and I vowed then and there to become a cartoonist. And I did! 

It's no wonder that my career began in newspapers. I spent twelve years working as a graphic artist in places as disparate as Chicago, Atlanta, and Jackson, Miss., all along filing away characters and their stories. 

I now spend my time making comics and kids books using all of the stories I've saved along the way. They range from talking toads to dapper dogs. I especially love to draw animals wearing human clothes and doing human things.
