As part of the aforementioned Javari Education Project, this is an original story that is featured in Lesson 1 of our online curriculum. This short story follows a young girl’s exciting tour of her neighborhood. We hope that this fun and playful book helps kids identify and appreciate all the special things that make their community a home.

The Flat Hat has been the College of William and Mary's student newspaper since 1911! I am thrilled to be a part of this driven, diligent community of writers, photographers, and artists. I have been illustrating for the newspaper for my first two years, and am so proud to be the next Graphics Editor.
I’m so happy to introduce you to my second children's book, Hullabaloo, Goodnight Deep Blue! This book, also sponsored by the Dallas Zoo, is entirely dedicated to promoting ocean conservation and raising awareness about the critically-endangered vaquita porpoise. I loved studying videos and pictures of sea animals and had even more fun illustrating them! It was always a pleasure to return to my desk after a long day, grab my digital pencil and iPad, and start drawing and rhyming away.
The book is now available on Barnes & Noble. I hope you enjoy it and become better acquainted with the gentle, majestic vaquita (just like I did).
I am particularly excited to share a special project that I worked on during the summer of 2018! Because of my love for art and animals, I partnered with the Dallas Zoo to create a children’s book entitled Hullabaloo, Good Morning Dallas Zoo. I collaborated with the Dallas Zoo to author, illustrate, and publish this children's book. Through IngramSpark, a self-publishing software service, the book is officially published in both e-book and print versions! I learned so much about self-publishing, and my experience volunteering at the Dallas Zoo has especially made this experience all the more meaningful.
The book is now available on the Amazon and Barnes & Noble websites. All proceeds go to the Dallas Zoo and toward conservation programs! The link below will direct you to the websites where the book can be purchased and delivered. I hope you enjoy it!
