Since her childhood, she has been using art to tell stories and make others smile. Far from her days of coloring printer paper with marker and stapling them together in a book, she now tells stories through mixed media pieces. She combines detailed, hand-rendered backgrounds inspired by mid-20th century animation with more contemporary character design. Her pieces aim to evoke the inner child of the audience by transporting viewers to imaginative worlds with oddly charming characters.
