Rooted in mark-making and drawing.

A multi-disciplinary artist, published illustrator, and muralist. My practice is often figurative, rooted in mark-making and drawing which gives way to improvised compositions. I use a variety of media, including brushes, Montana spray cans, oil pastels, pens, watercolor, and airbrush.

In April 2024, I was commissioned by Nite Yun, chef and owner of Nyum Bai, to create a mural for her highly anticipated restaurant, Lunette, which was featured on Netflix’s Chef’s Table: Noodles. Additionally, Nite commissioned me to provide illustrations for her cookbook ‘My Cambodia’ published by 4 Color Books/Penguin Random House.

With a B.A. in Design | Media Arts from UCLA, I explore the intersections of mark-making and improvisation through a wide range of mediums.
