✸Kind Words from Past Mentees✸

  • “I’ve always admired how Anoosha makes time in her busy career to share her wealth of knowledge to educate her peers and aspiring artists alike. As a fellow children’s book author and illustrator, I found her feedback helpful and her energy inspiring. Her critique of my website has been instrumental as I’ve begun working on my redesign. Overall, her years in the industry make her perspective valuable at any experience level!”

    Rae Crawford - @itsraecrawford

  • "Anoosha is absolutely brilliant at delivering insightful and detailed feedback in the most encouraging way possible. Her critiques always made me feel happy with where my art skills were at the moment, while also knowing exactly where and how to improve. One of the portfolio pieces that I worked on with Anoosha ended up being the one that the art director pointed out when I got my first publishing gig."

    Ana Stretcu - @ana.with.the.key

  • “It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business.”

Hello there!

Meet the Mentor

I’m an award-winning illustrator, author, and character designer with over a decade of experience in children’s publishing and freelance art. I’ve worked with clients like Netflix, Google, Target, and Simon & Schuster, and I’ve illustrated over 40 books, including titles I’ve written myself.

But more than that, I’ve navigated the overwhelm, self-doubt, and messy ups-and-downs of building a creative career. I am a huge believer in free and accessible education, and I’ve spent my career sharing my knowledge. For those who are looking for something a little extra, these sessions are a way for me to give personalized advice and growth for struggling creatives.

Let’s figure it out together!
