I am a professional illustrator and self published comic book creator. I have published thirteen individual comic books, and three graphic novels. I was a fourth grade teacher for eleven years. I currently teach art classes and offer workshops for children at community centers, schools, and online.

Please be sure all manga, comics, and graphic novels are school appropriate for young audiences. I cannot allow any content with nudity, violence, profanity, or adult content into the classroom. If your learner would like to share his or her favorite comic book,and there are questions regarding the content, feel free to contact me. I am happy to preview any book at least 48 hours in advance of the class. I often share my authored works in the classroom.
