A graphic journalism piece exploring the thesis work of Ollie Combs, MS student at the University of Illinois Chicago Biomedical Visualization program.
I interviewed Ollie in February 2026 and created this visual narrative based on their work. In turn, they made a comic about my work :) The bug characters originate in our shared love of insects and Ollie’s own preying mantis avatar.
