A Toronto-based medical illustrator who loves the challenge of turning complex biomedical ideas into visuals that feel clear, intentional, and—most of all—alive, I work at the intersection of science and art with a background in Biomedical Engineering and formal training in Biomedical Visualization at UBC. Moving between precision and expression feels natural to me; it’s where my curiosity thrives. Before stepping fully into illustration, I spent seven years in the healthcare software world translating technical conversations between clinicians and developers. Those years taught me to listen deeply, think critically, and search for the story inside the data—skills that now shape my creative process. My work spans anatomical artwork, procedural narratives, infographics, and science-focused visual designs, blending accuracy and artistry across both 2D and 3D formats. Research is my anchor; sketching is how I think; and collaboration remains my favourite part of any project. I rely on tools like Photoshop, Illustrator, Procreate, and Blender, but I’m equally drawn to the quiet rhythm of traditional media—pencils, paint, and the small imperfections that make art feel human. Thoughtful representation is a cornerstone of my practice. I strive to create visuals that reflect the diversity of real bodies and the inclusivity that modern medicine requires. Whether illustrating anatomy, surgical pathways, or conceptual science, I approach each subject with care, accuracy, and cultural sensitivity. Curiosity drives me, empathy guides me, and I believe science becomes more powerful when people can truly see themselves in it. Whether crafting a surgical sequence, designing an educational diagram, or developing visuals for publication, my aim is to create imagery that not only informs, but resonates. If you’re looking for illustrations that blend technical precision with thoughtful, art-driven storytelling, I’d love to create with you.
