“I MUST PLOD ON. (...) IF IT WERE THAT EASY, ONE WOULDN’T TAKE ANY PLEASURE IN IT.” 
Vincent Van Gogh
These quotes, they're like my guiding lights. Whenever I find myself lost or off track, they bring me back to my purpose.

Life, it's a rollercoaster of highs and lows. Some days, it's hard to find the love in my current situation. Other days, it feels like pure bliss. What I've come to learn is, I just need to keep moving forward, trusting that inner voice guiding me. //

Now, here I am, navigating the streets of New York City, diving into the world of Graphic Design. I can't predict what you'll discover here, but I hope you find some love and empowerment from my work.

I remember back when I was 14, I had to stop creating art due to some tough times. Painting lost its meaning for me. I spent my school days just shouting to the universe that someday, I'd come back to art – a world that had taught me both love and harsh reality. A decade later, in 2017, I set foot in the United States to reignite my artistic flame. I started with Interactive Arts but soon switched to Graphic Design. The love and support I've received since then have been overwhelming.

Things might not come to you right away. It's all about timing. If you hold onto hope and faith, the universe has a way of aligning things perfectly.

Whoever you are, reading this, I hope your days filled with anticipation and dreams waiting to be lived. Just remember, your life – it's truly spectacular as itself now!
