Angelie Yap is an illustrator, designer, and storyteller whose childhood was filled with library books, crayon doodles, and Taylor ham and cheese sandwiches. She followed her love of books to the Maryland Institute College of Art, where she graduated in 2019 with a BFA in Illustration with Concentrations in Graphic Design and Book Arts. She now spends (a little) less time with crayons and designs for some incredible picture books as a Senior Designer at Little, Brown Books for Young Readers.
Outside of 9 to 5, you can find Angelie freelance illustrating. She loves exploring new ways of combining traditional and digital media, and her artwork has been recognized by the Society of Illustrators.
