I am a digital freelance illustrator and work primarily with promotional anime styled artwork. I’ve been using digital media since I was young and am mostly self taught (by the internet haha). I’ve done a few projects in the past with my most recent ones including SPJA for Anime Expo, Loot Crate, UltraPRO, and Riot Games. Computers, Gaming and art, although very closely tied to my work, are also big hobbies of mine.
