About Me
I’m an illustrator with a Bachelors Degree of Fine Arts from The College of New Jersey. My studies are mostly focused on digital programs and concept work to build my portfolio.I feel that drawing is the only thing that I can express thoroughly to a person other than words. And without drawing I would feel confined in my mind, not knowing how to talk or say the things that are important to me and to others. So I continue to pursue this career and show my emotions on paper or screen to give people the chance to see a story that I hope they find exciting.
