I told my mom I wanted to grow up to be a comic artist when it was 2008. Fast forward, I made my first zine in 2019, won Broken Pencil's Best Comic Zine Award in 2022, and gave a panel talk on comics in 2023.
Comic is my sancturary and communication. Slowly but steadily, I'm working towards a chilhood dream.
