About
Upcoming Animator and Story-board Artist, striving to ultimately become an Art Director.
I was born and raised in SoCal to an immigrant family. My passion has always been in creating. I want to be able to tell stories that bring others joy and impact them positively, as many stories have done so for me. I am very interested in philosophy and how we can utilize storytelling to teach valuable lessons and reach out to help others. I hope to do so as well with my stories through animation.
I hope to create art that leaves some good in this world. My only real goal is to make life worth living and no matter how small of an impact it may have, I hope my art can help do that for others.

Building the Moist Boys Brand
Moist Boys is an apparel brand I created with my friend Saria Won for fun. We wanted to create cool deigns for clothing and accessories that we would enjoy wearing. For my Senior Project I wanted to create a short animated story that shows off my style and the Moist Boys was a good subject matter for me to focus around. Along with this I created stickers, logos, mascot designs and the websites/socials for the Moist Boys, having expanded a joke into a legitimate company.
