Born in Louisville, KY; raised in Hong Kong; went to college in Liberty, MO; transferred to and graduated from Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia, PA. Currently working my way to be a Freelance Artist based in Philadelphia. Sometimes I feel lost and wonder whether I like this life, this world, the city I live in, what I do, and who I am. Yet art is something that constantly reminds me of all the things to be loved, despite our imperfection. I have always enjoyed art, so a little bit of everything is what I love and try to do. From drawing and painting, graphic design, writing and languages, to photography and videography. All kinds of art are unique yet so closely related; they come from life, they carry the weight of humanity, together they have the power to touch people's hearts. I enjoy them all thoroughly and differently, as they have helped, in different ways, a pessimist such as me retrieve beauty in the ordinary through the moments we often take for granted.
