I'm an American from Washington DC. I have a background teaching children's art classes in Sunday school as well as non-artist and beginner adults for professional growth. This great experience led me to pursue an art career and attain a BFA in cartooning and animation and have since done much freelance illustration, animation and storyboarding work for large and small companies such as Feld Entertainment, Disney on Ice and the US Department of Energy. I have also exhibited my work at comic cons in the US and Europe over many years. I continue to give art workshops on portraiture and urban sketching in Budapest and the Washington DC area as my availability permits. I find that teaching keeps my art and communication skills sharp and efficient.
