Hi there!

I’m Naomi Giddings, a freelance illustrator from the Washington, DC area currently living in California. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Washington University in St. Louis with a major in Communication Design and minors in Creative Writing and Art History & Archaeology. I'm also the illustrator for the picture book, RISING ABOVE: THE WATARU 'WAT' MISAKA STORY, published by Triumph Books.

I'm mixed Japanese American and am interested in creating work that uplifts marginalized people. When I'm not working, you can usually find me reading, cuddling a cat, or waxing poetic about animated films.
