CREATIVE COACHING FOR ART, COMICS, & WRITING
About
I help artists, writers, and cartoonists move meaningful projects forward with clarity, momentum, and sustainable creative structure.
As a graphic novelist, teacher, and creative coach with an MFA in Drawing and Painting and a PhD in Cultural Studies, I bring deep experience in image, text, story, research, and process. My work combines creative feedback, project mapping, accountability, and process-centered coaching so you can strengthen your project, trust your voice, and keep going.
