About
Welcome to Wired to Wonder—a space where the intricacy of neuroscience meets the expressive power of art.I use scientific illustration to translate complex concepts into accessible visuals that inspire curiosity and clarity. Whether it's the branching elegance of microglia or the pulse of neural signaling, each illustration is designed to reveal the beauty behind the biology.This portfolio celebrates the wonder wired into all of us—and invites you to see science not just as information, but as imagination made visible.
