Thank you God, Goddess, eternal Spirit, Buddha, Allah, Jesus, Lao-Zi, Universe, Oprah, everything and everyone!
Because Whether their were forces with or against me, Things played out in such away that provided me such amazing resource's, great opportunities and lovely gifts.
I've been very blessed in my 22 yrs of life. I hope that everyone gets the chance to see one of their dreams become a reality.
Being given the opportunity to Illustrate this book was a dream come true for me.
I'd like to thank Ben Butcher for being one of those forces that fought for me.
Because of Ben, i was inspired and encouraged to illustrate the book using whatever medium i wished to execute it in. Thank you Kat Chanover, Stella Koh, Ricky Nierva, Kelly Bonbright , leigh Anna McFadden, Aiden Cleeland Kelly for being supportive forces, and of course my family & friends.

Anyone who's interested in buying the book might be pleased to know that it's only $3.99. Even during these challenging economic times, that's a good a deal! You can find it at Barnes & Nobles, Borders or order it on Amazon. Click on the link toward the right of the screen if you'd like to order it now: )

Dinosaur Song in NY

My animated short Dinosaur Song was apart of the New York International Childrens Film Festival. The film screened in the Shorts for Tots category, an audience of 3 -7 year olds. There was a Q & A at the end. The Kids asked the filmmakers the cutest questions!!! A few of my favorites were "How many colors did you use in your film?" another good one was " Why are there no more dinosaurs? "

Little 4 on the Door

So at the moment I'm a freelance artist/ nanny. I watch a 2 & and a 6 yr old twice a week. Every morning I take the 2yr old Lily, to daycare. Recently the day care lady asked me if i'd paint something on her door. This gig was a lot of fun!!! plus it came with a free meal. The day care lady is Nicaraguan and an incredible cook. That's lily at the door, she's my buddy!!!
