About Me

I’m a writer, illustrator, and creator of feminist comics! If you’re an avid reader, you may have seen my work in Vox, TIME or The Washington Post. I also write a monthly comic for Roxane Gay’s newsletter, The Audacity. In this space, I do a little bit of everything, but you can expect to see a lot of comics about gender, justice, aging, and life as a woman in America. If that sounds like something you’d enjoy popping into your inbox every now and then, hit the button!

My dream aspiration for Graphic Rage is to make it a space where I can create meaningful work about important gender and social justice issues without having to get approval from an editor, without seeing ads running beside my art, and without watching my hard work vanish behind paywalls.

The work I do takes time: researching, scripting, sketching, thumbnailing, drawing, and coloring are just some of the steps that go into making a finished comic. As a freelancer, it’s difficult to say “no” to paid opportunities, but sometimes a “yes” to a paying gig means saying “no” to work that feels important and necessary.

By making this a fully reader-funded space for feminist memoir comics and comics journalism, I can do the kind of smart, thoughtful, illustrated story-telling that people have come to love from me without asking anyone else’s permission. I can create timely, urgent pieces quickly without the delays built into publishing schedules. And, most importantly to me, I can maintain control over my own work, ensuring that it’s always accessible to the people who need to see it.

Every paid subscriber moves me closer to my goal of making comics that can speak directly from my heart and mind to yours. If this feels like an effort you’d like to be a part of, please consider a paid subscription.
