I have always been curious about the world around me. I first learned about it through art, but science introduced me to the processes and l structures that lay beneath the surface. Being a science illustrator allows me to bring both of these disciplines together to grow our understanding of the places we are a part of.
Paying attention to the particularities of a community- whether it is made up of plants or people- is an act of love. I very much have a researcher’s heart- I love looking at the world and asking questions. I get incredibly excited about big academic ideas and tiny clumps of moss on the sidewalk. This world is so big and so beautiful and the closer you look at anything the more exciting it gets- but also the more obvious it becomes that our relationships with ourselves, each other, and with nature are broken. I believe that looking closely at nature can teach us more about what it means to be human, and how we can begin the process of healing together.
About the Artist!
I am a Science Illustrator, artist, and enthusiastic amateur naturalist. I graduated from Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, GA in 2020 with a B.A. majoring in art and a biology minor. I then went on to complete a certificate in Natural Science Illustration from California State University, Monterey Bay in 2022. I am currently working as a freelance Science Illustrator!
