Justin was born & raised on Long Island, New York & holds a Bachelor's Degree from Cornell University (Ithaca, NY). From an early age he developed a deep passion & admiration for animals, nature, National Parks, natural wonders, famous landmarks & monuments, & much more. Utilizing his advanced & unique graphic design & illustration techniques, Justin weaves vibrant colors & intricate, fascinating detail into his children's picture books. The images, graphics, & design of his books are completely his own style & imagination & they truly showcase the creativity that he hopes to inspire in all of his book readers. Understanding that knowledge is one of the greatest gifts you can give to others, Justin hopes his books motivate his readers to have fun & be visually stimulated while they learn about all the interesting & awesome animals & places across the globe. Away from authoring books, Justin enjoys sports, music, going to parks with his dog, reading about current events, science, & learning. He hopes that his books will inspire children to never stop learning & never stop dreaming
