I am a science illustrator who specializes in ecology, climate, and earth science. My work has appeared in Scientific American, Smithsonian, and Taproot Magazine, among other publications. My practice is informed by field experience and scientific expeditions, where field sketching facilitates direct observation of the environment. Back in the studio, I create explanatory graphics to amplify communication in publications such as papers, articles, and presentations. I’m currently based out of Anchorage, Alaska.

As a field artist, I accompany researchers on scientific expeditions to explore the landscape and document discoveries through painting and nature journaling. This firsthand experience informs my illustration process, enabling me to convey the narrative of research in post-field publications and media. I have extensive experience with backcountry travel, wilderness safety, and data-collection methods. Consider funding an artist collaboration when applying for research grants.
