I currently am employed full-time in the Public Health/Training field and am a freelance artist and writer to supplement my income. I prefer to work in traditional 2-D media, although I am proficient with Photoshop. Most of my work is figurative and representational. I would love to build my portfolio of science illustrations, particularly medical, botanical or zoological illustration. I have a strong background in the life sciences and anatomy, as evidenced by my academic background in biomedical sciences. My previous lab coursework also involved the production of complex precision renderings of plant and animal tissues.

• Anatomy and Physiology I & II (with labs)
