Hello! I’m Sarah Joy Zimmerman,

a Certified Medical Illustrator located in Seattle, WA. I have a passion for using my artistic and design skills to simplify and describe scientific concepts to others.

I consider myself a medical illustration generalist, but I do especially enjoy collaborating on projects concerning public health and combatting medical misinformation. I’m able to use a variety of media styles tailored to the expected audience and budget. This could include infographics and informative flyers, research diagrams and graphs, 2D mograph animations, and anatomical digital paintings.

I received my BFA in Medical Illustration from the Rochester Institute of Technology. After college, I developed my graphic design skills while working for the Kois Center, a continuing dental education school and research center in Seattle. I’m currently a freelance medical illustrator for Medscape, occasionally work on figures for medical research articles, and am actively looking for new clients to work with!

If you’re interested in working with me on a project or you have a question about medical illustration, feel free to reach out to me!
