Born and raised in beautiful Portland, Oregon, I recently moved to Los Angeles to pursue my career as a storyboard artist and illustrator. After graduating from Oregon State University with a degree in Finance, I worked most recently as a financial analyst for Nike. While this was a very interesting and valuable experience, I recognized that my dream was to be an artist, and I soon swapped my spreadsheets for drawing paper, and headed to Los Angeles to pursue a career as a storyboard artist.
I have always been fascinated with the visual arts, constantly sketching and doodling as a kid. But it wasn’t until a couple years after college that I even considered art as a career; then I learned about storyboards. Combining my artistic ability with my love of film, it was perfect!
