Hi there! My name is Rebecca Allen, although everyone calls me Becky. I'm an Illustrator & Graphic Designer from London Ontario Canada, with 10+ years of experience working in design and marketing.
In 2018, I left the world of in-house design to do Tigerlily Graphics full-time. My specialties include branding, print design, infographics, and illustration. I've been lucky to consult on design work for several companies across Canada including the University of Toronto, the South West LHIN, and the town of Port Hardy.
But I also have a passion for working with other artists and teach workshops on the side. I strongly believe that artists have the ability to change the world. If you have any graphic or illustration needs, I’d love to chat.
