Hi, I’m Paris Jerome. I’m an illustrator, writer, and game designer focused on telling stories that center emotion, world-building, and underrepresented voices—especially within BIPOC and queer communities. I create across mediums—illustration, sequential art, creative writing, and visual novels—bringing characters and relationships to life through a lens of intimacy, identity, and speculative storytelling.​

​

With a collaborative and approachable mindset, I aim to support and elevate every project I contribute to, ensuring it reaches its fullest potential. My work is deeply informed by my passion for fostering community, celebrating diversity, and crafting relatable, fantastical narratives that inspire and engage audiences.

​

The practice of story development and how it lends itself well to varying creative outlets is a focus I have expanded within my graduate career at SVA, having earned an MFA in Visual Narrative. I believe storytelling is collaborative by nature, and everyone has a voice worth developing. My journey learning new tools—from creative writing to game engines—has shown me that your creative voice often emerges when you challenge yourself to speak through a new medium.

​

So whether you’re looking for a character artist, a narrative designer, or a creative partner to help bring a story to life—I’d love to know more about what you care about, what you’re building, and how I can be of service. Because at the end of the day, I’m not just making stories—I’m creating worlds where people feel seen.
