Projects


Book Illustrations

Some illustrations I've done for some Seven Seas Danmei novel publications.
Right now I'm the artist for Legend of Exorcism: Tianbao Fuyao Lu, the first volume of which will come to bookstores in Spring 2025.


'Project Camellia' Webcomic

Straight-laced Xiao Hua is tasked with retrieving a mystical artifact known as the Vermillion Camellia. Along the way he crosses paths with a mysterious young man that goes by the name 'Feng', who pulls him into a chaotic world of heists, opulence, and deceit.
Below is the beginning excerpt.



About

Howdy! I'm a recent Sheridan grad who's interested in hand-drawn animation, storyboarding, and concept art.I'm pretty tech savvy and good at problem solving, plus I'm well-versed in Harmony (the node view is my one true love). I'm a fast learner so I'm positive I can be a great addition to your team!Though I'd love to be animating 24/7, I also like playing guitar, writing music, and making games. I can also yo-yo.
