Comics portfolio

My comics work has mostly been in an editorial context, from longform non-fiction comic to fun, promotional comics about newsy stories. I enjoy the visual storytelling that the comics format allows and the opportunity for some playfulness. Below is a small selection of my comic illustration work.
