Summary

I work primarily in traditional art and graphic design, occasionally crossing over into digital with the skills I can apply to it. I've been selling prints and printed merchandise of my work at conventions and online since 2014.
I'm currently pursuing a Master's in Library Science at IUPUI. I graduated from IUPUI in 2021 with a BS in Media Arts and Science, specializing in Digital Storytelling as well as Video/Audio Production. I minored in Book Arts and earned a certificate in Chinese Studies studying Mandarin Chinese.
I enjoy working with and reinterpreting other intellectual properties because of the enjoyment viewers have when they see work that stands out. I feel great when someone can make an emotional attachment to something I've made.
I want to push myself by using techniques and mediums others don't think about or know how to use. I especially want to make older mediums appealing and viable in the modern age, before they're lost forever!
