Howdy!

I'm originally from Liberty, Missouri and I moved to Los Angeles in 2016 to pursue my passion for storytelling and art.  I love cartoons, comics, games, and even doll designs. In my off time, I like to explore different restaurants and try food from around the world. I also like to explore the Central Coast towns with my family.
