She has illustrated Role Playing Games books for 3D&T and Tormenta, among others. Her most successful and recognized work is the manga series Holy Avenger (a spin-off of Tormenta), which lasted for 42 issues and spawned a handful of other projects, including other comics, an audio CD with professional actors playing the characters, and the embryo for an animated series.
