I’m a small town guy originally from Michigan who now resides in Baltimore, Maryland.

I have illustrated several picture books including The Three Armadillies Tuff, the Ring Bear, Flour Girl, the Ned series and Mouse on the Moon.  I also illustrated short stories for Cricket and other magazines.

In addition to children’s books and magazines, I worked for many government and corporate clients. Among them are the Forest Service in Washington DC where I created a unique series of Smokey Bear posters and other materials.  Others include USDA, United States Navy, Nielsen, The Humane Society, and the  WWE.

Most recently I was honored to be invited to teach illustration at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) here in Baltimore. It was great fun and I was inspired by the incredibly talented students and faculty.
