Hi! I’m Ceili, a designer and illustrator based in Brooklyn, New York.
I finished my BFA in Illustration from Pratt Institute in 2022 and earned my MFA at SVA’s Illustration as a Visual Essay program in 2025.
In my free time, I love coffee shop hopping and reading in parks!
My freelance work can be seen in publications for various non-profits including Planned Parenthood of Greater New York and included in online learning materials for Amplify.
