Illustrated labels designed for cool dudes at North American Sake Brewery

The Wild Bunch is a chapter book I had the honor to illustrate for Simon & Schuster. It's about three unlikely friends—brainiac Hector, bullish Jack, and sarcastic Paul— as they find themselves braving the wilderness in search of the mythical Beast of Bear Falls.

This two-illustration project was for The Washington Post Express, and it included a guide to the best coffee, beer, food trucks, ramen, etc in our nation's Capitol. 

I also had the opportunity to draw Teddy Roosevelt (MLB Mascot version) eating ramen on a unicorn. It was very special.

This is a 5-part illustration series for Honolulu Magazine's 2016 Sour Poi Awards, which celebrates the best and worst of Oahu. I got to illustrate racist politicians, over-budget monorail projects, the consequences of Pokemon Go, artificial reefs made out cremated human remains, and a lunch lady stealing lunch money. 

I've been creating monthly illustrations for Cincinnati Magazine's Tableside column, which puts a spotlight  on local chefs in the Cincinnati area. 

A book cover I illustrated for Scholastic, This Is Just a Test tells the story of a boy caught in the middle of cultures, of friends, and of growing up Chinese-Jewish-American in this hilariously witty and heartwarming coming-of-age novel.

Everyone wants a piece of the NFL, but oddsmakers favor NBC to come away with the rights to the new prime-time package. Will a simulcast scheme drive down the asking price? 

Illustration for Timeout Chicago

In an effort to get noticed by Lorne Michaels and other SNL recruiters, many Chicago comedy performers are no longer working their way up the iO and Second City ranks, and instead doing their own solo sketch shows at smaller venues like the Upstairs Gallery. Audiences win because these solo shows are often boundary-pushing and hilarious, but is this self-first strategy killing the group-think ethos that has put Chicago comedy on the map?
