Hello! I’m an illustrator and visual artist based in New York City. I have been drawing since I can remember, began teaching myself digital art in 2006, and eventually went on to achieving a BFA in Studio/Fine Art. My studies have heavily involved digital art software, graphic design, story-boarding & sequential art, video art, traditional drawing, sculpture, painting, sewing and curating.
Mixed-race and a daughter of immigrants, I strive to represent diverse characters, fresh stories, and the strong women I would've liked to see represented in media growing up. I draw inspiration from animation, video games and comic book culture - themes I've long been passionate about.
My intent is always to create original characters and worlds rich with backstory.
