Greetings! Well lets see I was born in Weisbaden Germany, and lived most of my life in the Pacific Northwest. I recently moved to South Carolina. I was a scientific illustrator for National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, creating illustrations of fish, whales and seals for marine biologists. In my new career as an author and illustrator, I make use of my life experiences and voice of writing to authenticate my books and share my experiences to encourage children to learn about the world of nature.I enjoy camping and sketching with long walks in the woods with my dogs.AwardsHonor Award from Skipping Stone Magazine, River SongParenting Media award, River SongMoonbeam award, River SongAn award winning poster created for the 125th Anniversaryof National Marine Fisheries is a permanent collection of the Nation's National ArchivesClient ListDown EastDawn PublicationsSylvan DellSmithsonian InstitutionNational Zoological ParkAlaska Fisheries Science CenterMarine Mammal Protection BulletinNational Marine Mammal LaboratoryPublished BooksIn My Backyard (Sylvan Dell Publishing)Why Puppies Do That (Willow Creek Press)A Puffin's Year (Down East Books)River Song (Dawn Publications)Strange Life of Hermit Crabs (Mondo Publishing)
