Ali works full-time as a freelance illustrator living in Northern California. She specializes in character design, illustration, and visual storytelling for mobile, board games, card games, and books.

She is currently working on her debut illustrated novel Shadow Singer (working title).

When she was young, she lived more in her head than in the real world. Everything had a story. The texture in the walls had faces, appliances felt sad when they broke, and she spent more time with her dolls than she did making friends. Watching a Disney movie more than once a day was normal. It was somewhere between coloring books and playing dress-up that she discovered a blank sheet of paper and pencils.
