Hello! I'm Emmanuel

I’m an educational visual designer and illustrator with 10+ years of experience supporting EdTech companies, publishers, and learning teams that produce digital educational content.I work with teams to turn complex material into clear, engaging visuals, providing illustration, layout, and visual asset support that fits seamlessly into existing workflows. My focus is on helping content move efficiently from design to development through illustration, style matching, and preparation of assets for interactive and screen-based learning experiences.I’ve collaborated with organizations such as Luma Brighter Learning and Clark Creative Education, contributing to digital courses, classroom resources, and interactive learning materials. My work has also appeared in teacher resources on Teachers Pay Teachers and in the Kickstarter-backed card game Zoo Webs, known for its cast of stylized animal characters.What sets me apart is adaptability within structured production environments. I do not force a single visual style. Instead, I align my work with your project’s goals, whether that involves creating diverse historical figures for social studies content, cohesive layouts for UI-driven learning platforms, or character illustration for educational and tabletop products.I’m available for ongoing contract support as well as defined project-based work, and I collaborate remotely with teams across US, UK, Canadian, and international time zones.
If you’re looking for reliable visual support to help your learning content stay clear, consistent, and engaging, let's talk.
