About me

She's transforming her childhood passion for drawing into a full-time career as an illustrator. Her creative journey, from college to today, has been shaped by work, learning, community involvement, and participation in competitions and exhibitions like Unknown Asia, Authenticity ID, Bharatika, Sinestesia, Weecanfest, and HUG.

Initially focused on traditional tools, she expanded into digital illustration after getting her first iPad. Inspired by plus-size yogi videos, her work boldly features vibrant hues, grain textures, and unconventional body proportions, reflecting her introspective nature. Influenced by pop culture, anime, and modern Japanese illustration, her art offers a unique perspective on the human experience.
