Born in Park Ridge, IL, I started my debut in drawing comics at the age of 10, when I was drawn to Batman, Superman, and Spider-man. As I got older my art improved and I went to The Art Institute of Schaumburg and graduated with a BFA in 2018. My aspiration is to make a career drawing comic books.

Last month, the Library Board of Trustees invited the Friends of the Library to drop by their meeting so that they could recognize them with a proclamation declaring October 15-21 Friends of the Library Week.

The Friends raise money that enables our library to provide needed resources for adult programming, class visits for all second graders in the Library District, technology equipment, and special events throughout the year.
