VERY excited to announce that I’ve illustrated a book - written by Jessica Speer - and it’s out August 2nd, 2022 with Familius.

The book is about middle school (as you may have guessed from the title) - specifically about how to navigate the difficult and awkward stuff that happens when you’re that age. It is full of choose-your-own-adventure stories, which are illustrated by me!

This is from a story about a boy who gets addicted to social media…I interpreted this in the only logical way - in my drawings, he has an Instagram account for his cat, Dill.
