I fist realized my goal to pursue a career in the entertainment industry when I came out of high school.

Since childhood, I've been drawn to various creative pursuits, including drawing, painting, sewing, ceramics, and cosplay. I have always enjoyed getting invested in fantastical tales and I used to create stories and characters growing up. I found that being in a creative industry is the most fulfilling path forward for me, where I can craft stories that other people can grow attached to and contribute to significant memories in people's lives through my art.

Since I was a kid, I've had a deep fascination with all forms of visual storytelling whether it be comics, video games, tv, or film. It wasn't until my first year of university that I truly started to look at art and design as a serious career choice because all I wanted to do was just create things. Studying Industrial Design gave me a solid foundation in a wide variety of skills, allowed me to explore many creative outlets, and eventually helped me find my recent passion for 3D art.
