Hello, I'm an Asian illustrator and graphic designer currently exploring life and work in Los Angeles. My work draws inspiration from fashion, literature, history, and the everyday—finding beauty in small moments and transforming them into new narratives and visual connections.
For me, art and design are forms of communication. I weave together imagery and visual language to express personal perspectives and nuanced emotions through my own approach of storytelling.
