1023. Imagining the Possibilities in Stories

“A family friend, an author, reached out to me and asked if I would illustrate a book he was working on. I fell in love with the process of creating stories and learned all the ins and outs on what it really takes, including the not-so-glamorous side of writing a children’s book. That gave me a lot of direction. Even though it was really a very challenging path, I decided I wanted to go down that path.”
