Visual Storytelling: Comics, Design, and Illustration

I help socially conscious organizations tell visual stories that stick.

I am an award-winning visual storyteller who has produced illustrated art and design services for mission-driven nonprofits, public agencies and publishers for over 10 years. I have worked with organizations to uplift stories about reproductive justice, tenants rights, labor history, indigenous struggles, HIV/AIDS and cannabis decriminalization, political protest and more.

Clients Include:

Dartmouth Hitchcock Health, Champlain Valley Office of Economic Opportunity, FQPN, The Guardian, The Nib, Microsoft, YEAH! (Youth Engagement, Advocacy and Housing), Koffler Centre of the Arts, Celebrate People’s History

Illustrated data visualization including a map of the United States, a graph illustrated with prison towers, and a Cannabis flag being held by a white man at a government building.

Ideas and stories with pictures are over 50% more memorable than those with text or audio only.

If you want people to take action or remember your public education campaign, it’s worth investing in visual storytelling!

I use a minimalist art style and modern, simple illustrations to explain complex systems and ideas.

  • A professional, eye-catching illustrated website can build trust with your audience.
  • An explainer comic can easily break down complex systems and educate the public you serve.
  • An illustrated zine can show your donors the future change you envision.An illustrated portrait of Michael Thompson, an older Black man who was Michigan's longest serving prisoner for a non-violent offense, and a Nina Parks, a young Filipina woman and cannabis entrepreneur.

What’s the Process?

 

 

1. We talk about your goals and define the project together.

2. I manage the project, and work with you as I adapt your content or create completely new work and revise drafts.

3. I send final deliverables that you and your people will be excited to share.

Illustrations of a computer, a white man smoking weed in front of a fenced in prisoner, a dark haired woman touching cannabis leaves, and a dove holding a cannabis leaf.
