Hi!

I’m a designer and illustrator with a passion for telling great stories through illustration, branding, and sequential art.

I was born and raised in the Midwest, and I now live in New Hampshire with my wife, where I continue to harbor a love for rural spaces.

I was an editor with Crucial Comix for the Fall 2024 and Summer 2025 seasons, and am currently a volunteer editor for Cartoonists for Palestine.

My short comics have been published by Crucial Comix, Trans Muted, and Lesbos: Boston’s Lesbian Newsletter, as well as self-published on my Instagram, @albenbow. New short comics are slated to be published in the coming months by Sinister Wisdom, Power & Magic Press, and Combos Press.

My graphic memoir, UNBINDING, will be published with Oni Press in September 2027.

Want to hold one of my zines in your hands? You can purchase comics, zines, and tufted rugs (I wear many hats) on my Etsy here: apbgraphics.etsy.com
