Experimentation is crucial to my process as a comic artist. I strive to find new methods in technique, storytelling, and presentation with each project I take on. I hope to booth at MILK Fest to become a part of the exchange of this community, that is, inspiring and taking inspiration from artists like myself. Thank you!
