I’m a local Illustrator who’s inspired by nostalgic places, the impact they have on our lives, and the sense of belonging a simple building can give. When I’m not creating, I’m out on adventures with my wife, son, and our dog Ranger—whether we’re exploring Chicago streets or a sandy beach.

Local artist who loves Chicago architecture

Libertyville, Illinois, settled in the early 19th century, grew from a small agricultural community into a bustling Chicago suburb shaped by the arrival of the railroad. Its architectural heritage blends Victorian-era homes, commercial buildings, craftsman houses, and notable public parks that reflect the town’s historic character.

The History of Libertyville, Illinois

Why we love the Chicago lakefront

Our family has called this place home for four generations. The north suburb of Libertyville is a welcoming, vibrant town with deep roots and a strong sense of community. Close to Chicago for easy city access to museums, festivals, food, and a lakefront that never grows old.
