ABOUT
Since the 00s: illustrator & fine artist → designer → art director → physics student → science visualizer.
I work in a variety of styles and mediums, and most enjoy “visualizing invisible things” (a Quanta joke), meaning abstract and imperceptible subjects in theoretical and experimental science. Some favorite topics include physics (from the particular to the universal), science fiction, and fantasy.
Available for freelance / consulting / contract opportunities.
In 2014 I joined Quanta Magazine as the first official Art Director and was the sole art staff for several years following. Through 2021, my work included establishing and shepherding the visual identity, directing and creating feature art (illustration, photography, interactive, video, etc.), visual / graphic design, hiring and guiding creative staff, and more.

PHOTOGRAPHIC & BOTANICAL
I love plants — tropical foliage and Araceae, particularly. Over some years I amassed a collection of indoor specimens, along with (perhaps inordinately?) expansive mental and photographic libraries on the subject.

My work has appeared in: The Atlantic, The Baffler, The Institute for Advanced Study, Nautilus, Pour La Science, Science, Science News, Scientific American, The Simons Foundation, Spektrum.de, Symmetry, WIRED, and elsewhere including various books, lectures, galleries, and on one building in NYC. A few recent achievements I contributed to: a Pulitzer, ASME Ellie for General Excellence, Webbys, and One Club Pencil. Solo, a university Physics Department award remains one of my most personally-meaningful honors.
