Kayla Facts

  • I have three cats and a pet turtle.

  • I’ve never played D&D as a character who couldn’t do magic. I alternate between playing as Clerics and Wizards.

  • I didn’t always want to be a cartoonist. Growing up, I wanted to be a paranormal investigator with a specialty in ghosts and aliens… and, presumably, ghosts of aliens.

  • My favorite meal is breakfast! I love how breakfast can combine sweet and savory and spicy all on one plate— or even inside of a single sandwich!

  • It took me a very long time to learn how to whistle and I’m still not very good at it.

  • I really like Scooby-Doo. My dream job would be writing and illustrating a Scooby-Doo graphic novel.
