Jessica Ciccolone is an Italian illustrator living in London. For almost a decade, she has worked as a graphic designer for mobile applications and websites. Not missing an opportunity to set her creativity to work, she has also tried her hand at digital illustration, mascots and emojis.

In 2018 she became a freelancer and decided to follow what, over the years, had proven to be her greatest passion: illustration. In 2019, she illustrated her first book series, My First … Educational Story Books. Eager to explore new styles and improve storytelling techniques, in September 2019 she began attending the master’s programme in Children’s Book Illustration at Cambridge.
