Painting and Drawing, Music and Performance

New York City

  • my name is an acronym
  • i love comedy and meme/pop culture
  • music is my favorite art form

I am a graduate from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago with a Bachelors in Fine Arts. My interests and studies revolve around Southeast Asian American Art and Climate Change, as I try to ideate alternative pathways for brighter futures. I believe gifting kids with the spirit of curiosity and joy of experimentation can pave numerous path towards new worlds and possibilities. Although my expertise is grounded in my traditional oil painting background (i.e. still life, painting from life, figurative), I believe in being a perpetual novice and find joy learning, working with, and discovering something new everyday ;) I hope to share my enthusiasm!
