Fashion School then Fashion Illustrations
I was born in a city of 7 million people.
Then when I was 8 years old my family and I moved from our home in Hong Kong to the tiniest little suburb outside of Vancouver. When I was little all I ever wanted was to go to fashion school and become a fashion designer and when I was 18 my dream came true when I was accepted into Ryerson's fashion design program.
After university I worked as an assistant fashion designer and would try to make and design clothes after work but it always seemed like an impossible task. After an exciting opportunity being selected as a semi-finalist at the Ecochic Design Awards I realized I enjoyed drawing clothes so much more than sewing them so I left my job and tried to hack it as a freelance illustrator and designer.
Since started out in 2012, I haven't stopped drawing and I no longer find practicing my craft an impossible task. And I've been lucky enough to work with such amazing clients as Tatler Hong Kong, Miele and Dazed Digital and all my really wonderful private clients.
