Born in Japan and raised in Georgia, I'm a largely self-taught artist, not taking any classes between the ages of 10 and 25. Minutes after receiving my Engineering degree I figured out that it wasn't for me. I began drawing obsessively the following day and a few years later I'm an artist.

In 2007 I figured I was due for some proper schooling and enrolled in the Drawing and Painting Atelier at Gage Academy in Seattle, drawing and painting from the figure each and every day.

Currently I'm painting, illustrating, trying out animation, and thinking about MFA programs.
