About

I grew up in Rhode Island and graduated from Ponaganset High school in 1998. From there I moved to Boston where I graduated from The Art Institute of Boston in 2002. Stayed out there until 2004. Now I find myself living in Ridgefield, CT which is quite convenient to New York.

A few years ago I had my first manuscript accepted by a publisher. The book Honey Badgers was formally released in April of 2007. I have just finished the illustrations for my second book which will be a Fall 2008 release–now just working out the initial rough details on what will most likely be the text for my third.

My life is becoming a series of stories. I turn most things into a story and I am constantly trying to find or stumbling upon an idea. I think my goal has become to just continue on in this field making the literature I want to make and the pictures I want to paint. We’ll see where it all goes in the years to come….hopefully I don’t run out of ideas one day.
illustration131.jpgThis(Honey Badgers) is my first book, published by Front Street Books. I enjoyed making it and I hope to be able to make many more while I am on this planet. I paint and write all day and all night–I am quite dedicated to my craft. I find sleep to be less important than most do, but I should be getting to it soon. I’m not sure what else to say about myself–BUY MY BOOKS PLEASE! nullThis is me being attacked by tiny Honey Badgers

    I am waiting with no small amount of impatience for your second book. Here at the Long Branch Public Library children’s room I have developed a newfound respect, some would say obsession, for honey badgers. Your work is the reason I want to come to work each day. Fall 2008 can’t come quickly enough. Thank you, thank you. Tara Sullivan

    I just had the pleasure of perusing all your sketches, paintings, red birds and the like. And have to say, you are incredibly talented.
    ” My life is becoming a series of stories”. I think….You just may see life a bit differently than most people, and how privileged we all are to catch a glimpse of the world thru your eyes.
    Keep imagining. And get some sleep!!!
