“i'm a story artist and i work primarily in animation for kid's tv but i also do illustrative work and comics! most of my art is rooted in chinese-canadian and caribbean-canadian experiences. currently, i have self-published an autobiographical comic called tension which talks about my personal curly hair insecurities, and a graphic novel that's a work in progress called lost in translation.”
