I’m a professional children’s book illustrator and designer with over 15 years of experience in publishing, formatting, and self-publishing for print-on-demand platforms such as Amazon KDP. I specialize in bringing stories to life through engaging illustrations, thoughtful layout design, and expertly formatted print and digital editions. From concept to completion, I can illustrate your children’s book, typeset interior pages, and produce print-ready PDFs or eBooks (ePub, MOBI) for devices such as the Apple iPad and Amazon Kindle. My background spans a wide range of projects, including children’s books, school and devotional titles, business publications, and localized editions. Proficient in Adobe Creative Suite—Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign—as well as QuarkXPress, Canva, and Figma, I combine creativity with strategic design thinking to craft impactful, user-centric solutions. Whether designing a cover that captures a story’s spirit or aligning text and illustrations to meet POD specifications, I focus on delivering visually cohesive and emotionally resonant work. When designing covers, I carefully consider the target age group, ensuring that the artwork, typography, and color palette reflect the story’s mood and appeal to its readers. My goal is to create designs that spark curiosity and offer a glimpse into the adventure within. With experience in over 100 publishing collaborations, I take pride in providing professional, high-quality service and maintaining lasting client relationships. I offer unlimited revisions to ensure complete satisfaction and consistently deliver on time and within budget. My clients value my attention to detail, creative vision, and commitment to excellence—qualities that have earned me a 99% satisfaction rate.

I am a U.S. based graphic designer with extensive experience in print and digital design. I have 23 years of professional design experience. I hold a BFA with a concentration in Graphic Design. My past work experience includes employment with a large publisher as a senior book cover and magazine designer, and later a book typesetting manager. Since 2005, I have solely worked as a freelance designer, excelling in all aspects of print and digital design. While I enjoy working on a variety of design pieces, I specialize in book cover design, book formatting/typesetting, and ebook design. I have extensive experience designing book covers and formatting and typesetting book interiors for KDP Publishing as well as traditional offset printing. I can also turn print books into ebook files (.ePub) for electronic distribution. I am an expert in the book publishing space, having worked on thousands of book designs during my career. My greatest assets are my communication with clients, attention to details, graphic design and typography experience, and fast and creative results. I am very deadline driven and go the extra mile to deliver superior visual results in a timely manner. I have continually worked with many of my clients for decades, and design for many repeat customers and referrals. I would enjoy bringing my creativity, expertise, and value to your project.
