DESIGN AND ART DIRECTION

About

Direct yet conceptual. Provocative and engaging. Design & illustration for brands, publications, and people.

I am a designer of books, mostly for children ages 0 to 18. I also design games, novelty books, and other ancillary product. I love the craft of making books; working with fabulous co-creators, perfecting a worthy story, and embellishing tangible details to create a happy reading experience for young persons.

I am currently children’s art director for Union Square & Co in New York. Previously, I was founding children’s art director for the Hippo Park and Minerva imprints of Astra Publishing House. I also spent fourteen years designing and art directing children’s books for Chronicle Books in San Francisco.
