I offer 1-on-1 coaching for artists!

Want help building an irresistible portfolio that wows your dream clients? Are you struggling to identify which industries or companies to pitch? I can help!

I’m an award-winning illustrator and surface designer who licenses my art with dozens of small boutiques and big brands—all without the help of an agent!

During our session, I’ll review your artwork and give you clear, actionable guidance. Each session is recorded, and you’ll have lifetime access to the playback. You’ll also receive smart highlights, auto-generated notes, and a concise summary of key action items and next steps—so you can stay fully present in the moment and revisit the insights anytime you want.

I can’t wait to help you jumpstart your design journey! 😊
