portrait of a nerd

 

Bio

Morgan is an active illustrator and concept artist for themed entertainment living in Central Florida. Originally wanting a career in animation, she switched her career-gears and decided to pursue designing for themed entertainment after graduating. She took a dive headfirst with a 2-year internship with Walt Disney Imagineering and then proceeded to find other exciting roles within the industry in the years that followed.

As a freelancer, she worked for various exciting clients that expanded her skillset even further. Product design, heavy ideation for marketing approaches, concept drawings, storyboards/animatics, character/costume design, and illustrated web-based media were added to her professional arsenal.

Out of the office, she has been a contributing artist to the Walt Disney Parks & Resorts art program, where her work can be seen on Walt Disney World and Disneyland property. In 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 she was invited to be a featured artist at the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts where she got to greet guests and sign prints of her featured artwork. To date, she has sold 26 original paintings and many limited edition and deluxe prints. 

At home (and at work), Morgan considers herself a nerd of many things. She loves going to the Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando parks with friends and family almost weekly. As a cosplayer since 2001 and a fan of costuming well before that, she also enjoys going to the many conventions that are offered around the state.
