Services offered

I was born in small town Saskatchewan. Having been drawing since I was five, cartoons are something I've had a passion for my whole life. Since attending Redhouse College of Animation, I've illustrated numerous children’s books, worked on animated series, storyboards and designs, and successfully created my own webcomic. Always armed with a pencil in hand, I am an artist with a knack for skill, professionalism and talent.
