I was born in Johnstown, PA and at the age of two came to Arizona. As a self-taught artist and I began creating stories in comic strips at the age of seven. I was influenced by children’s science books and illustrations inside. As an artist I have won many awards and have a B.F.A in Drawing as well as Associate in Art, Animation and Graphic Design. I am also a member of the Guild of Scientific Illustrators.
My other half Tom Kozs and I traveled the Southwest and want to share our experience in books for children with the likelihood to inspire and give encouragement to children to read and travel. Education is important to both Tom and I.
