See my newest op-ed for the Baltimore Sun about how cuts to science funding harm Maryland. Now is the time to call your members of congress to protect the NIH and NSF! www.baltimoresun.com/2025/06/23/a...

Overcoming Obstacles for @chronicle.com. This one was one of my favorites because I love painty textures, but also there's something meditative about drawing overlapping thorns. #procreateart #editorialillustration #giantbird

For an article titled "Winning Over Skeptical Students." And I got to draw all these (mostly) happy little bees! Big thanks to @chronicle.com. #editorialillustration #procreateillustration #beesandflowers

Madison has an opinion piece in the Lansing State Journal about the recent cuts in funding for science research. I'm really glad we have scientists like her studying things like crop resiliency. We need to keep funding science 🌱
