PICTURE BOOKS
ILOVEYOUMORETHANSPIDERS_Cover
I LOVE YOU MORE THAN SPIDERS

Why my child is crying…

 

Because Mom picked the wrong card. Because Mom was singing. Because Mom painted the wrong picture. Mom, it seems, can do nothing right.

“I Love You More Than Spiders” is a 350-word ode to a mother’s daily trials with her high-maintenance daughter. A spider hides on every page, an homage to my years creating Hidden Object games.

TheWorkADayBoy_Cover
THE WORK-A-DAY BOY

"The Work-A-Day Boy" is a 605-word picture book about a serious child surrounded by silly people. He's an inventor, dontcha know, and he's fed up with everyone trying to convince him to be a little kid just because he is one. One day he leaves home for the city, hoping to find the peace and quiet he needs to work, but on the way, he has to navigate a world full of people far less serious than himself. In his moment of triumph, he's interrupted by his father--his dreams dashed yet again. But he has no fear, tomorrow is a new day.

PERSONAL PORTFOLIO
PERONAL PORTFOLIO
My favorite style is pen & ink, specifically pointillism. I love the meditative nature and the resulting texture and contrast. Additionally, I work in color pencil and watercolor, and I enjoy experimenting in Procreate. There are so many wonderful brushes and possibilities.

ABOUT
ABOUT
My background is in CREATIVE PRODUCTION for the digital media and video game industries. I specialize in reenergizing teams and helping internal and external partners navigate change.

For over 20 years, I've partnered with international, creative talent as a publishing liaison for companies like Corbis, RealNetworks, Scripps Media, Gamehouse, Oberon, iWin, and Electronic Arts. Among my list of clients are Reuters, NatGeo, Lifetime Television, the ATF, GSN, JamCity, and countless, independent photography and game studios.

Since 2012, I've focused on NARRATIVE DESIGN directing, writing, and editing more than a dozen scripts for long-format, story-driven games. My games have been downloaded hundreds of millions of times worldwide and translated into several languages. My short stories and creative nonfiction have been published in Narrative Magazine, Popshot Quarterly, Bull Lit, Matter Press, and Suddenly, and Without Warning.


My early career is best described as kindness-driven. My professional, non-profit experience includes the Missionaries of Charity, St. Joseph's Foodbank, Shorebank Advisory Services, Pediatric Home Care, and the Earthjustice Legal Defense Fund. Additionally, I've professionally test-driven cars for General Motors and built case files for the Exxon Valdez litigation.

Due to an insatiable curiosity, I've couch-surfed around the globe, from Kenya to Japan, from England to Maui, and all points in between. I've sailed the Inside Passage and soloed multiple mountains from the Cascades to the Sangre de Cristos to Haleakala. For four years, I lived on a sailboat in the Puget Sound before single-handedly converting a school bus into an RV which I then drove around the US writing essays about my travels.

My goal is to learn something new every day and put this knowledge to work for the good of all.
