Our planet and it’s inhabitants have amazing stories to tell. I have always been fascinated by animals and how they live and what they do and who they are. And, I am deeply inspired to share their stories with others. My career path has taken me from biology to scientific illustration to graphic design. I have found that I enjoy being a ‘liason’ between scientists and the public. I would like to give children and parents the opportunity to fathom the uniqueness that exists in the natural world. The most wonderful and inspiring way I can think of to give people the opportunity to explore nature, is through picture books. I think it is extremely important that we educate ourselves about the natural world. Once you fathom how amazing it is, it is impossible to not want to protect it.
