Hello!

I’m Fay — an illustrator drawn to the everyday moments of life. Whether it’s a daily routine or a quirky slice of life, I enjoy capturing these scenes through playful, character-driven illustrations. I work in a variety of mediums including pen & ink, watercolor, gouache, and digital.

Over the past two decades, I’ve worn a lot of creative hats — working as a designer in advertising, branding, and UX, owning and co-running a skate shop, and raising two amazing daughters. Each of those experiences shapes the way I see and tell stories today.

I studied Visual Art and Ethnic Studies at Brown University and earned my MFA in Illustration from the School of Visual Arts. These days, I call San Diego home and am an active member of SCBWI.
