About Me

Drawing and writing my brain out have always been the inherent tool I have used to keep my sanity for as long as I can remember. (Not that I was a traumatized kid or anything.) I also draw to express to my friends and family how much I appreciate and love them because I often fail to deliver such delicate emotions to them. These goals and habits of mine developed through a series of illustrations that speak about emotions in my very own pure, naked way.

I couldn't feel luckier to have the ability to utilize my passion to bring smiles and laughs to so many people. It is priceless to expose my work, not only to make people happy, but to see connections through my art as we all seem to go through the same mental struggles.
