Anatomical Planes
and Terminology
One of my Draw Along Anatomy lessons – Anatomical Planes and Terminology.


Teaching Biomedical Illustration at the Columbus College of Art and Design. The students are learning how to mount an entomological specimen for drawing.

At MedDraw Studio I work with medical and scientific professionals to communicate complex information to a lay audience in the form of patient and consumer education materials, editorial illustrations, and journal figures. With a background in advertising, marketing, education, and biological and anatomical sciences, it is my goal to create a unique solution to your communication needs.
I have a Bachelor’s degree in illustration from the Columbus College of Art and Design, a teaching certificate from St. Mary’s University of Minnesota, and a Master of Science in Biomedical Visualization from the University of Illinois at Chicago. I am a certified medical illustrator and a member of the Association of Medical Illustrators where I serve on the Board of Governors. I am also a member of the Guild of Natural Science Illustrators, and an adjunct instructor of CORE Studio, Intro to Biomedical Illustration, and Natural Science Illustration at the Columbus College of Art and Design.
