I am available for commission, for hire, and for collaboration — get in touch!
Like a true Gemini elder-millennial who has spent their entire professional life mid and post-recession, I have a wide repertoire of skills and interests that I like to put to use. I’m also glad to travel! Some ways in which we could work together include:
Designer, Illustrator, Art Director
Projects range from poster design and event design, logo and visual identity, shadow puppetry and stop-motion animation, and more! See Posters & Commercial pages (but actually all the pages)
Teaching Artist
I am recognized as a Maine Arts Commission teaching artist and have taught in schools, non-profits, and institutions.
Topics could include printmaking, cut-paper collage, illustration, visual and personal identity, using storytelling as a tool for idea generation, community engagement projects, and more.
Collaborators include the Portland Museum of Art in Portland, ME; Berkeley Art Museum in Berkeley, CA; the Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco, CA; Figures of Speech Theater in Freeport, ME; Peavey Memorial Library, Eastport, ME; Cobscook Community Learning Center in Lubec, ME; and numerous public schools throughout the state of Maine.
