hi, I’m

Illustrator & Designer

!

I am a self-taught artist based in Boston, working in illustration and visual storytelling.

While I’ve drawn for as long as I could hold a pencil, my art career began at 13 years old, when I started drawing custom pet portraits under the shop name Louie + Co Designs, inspired by my own dog, Louie. What began as a little passion project has since evolved into my illustrative practice today!

While dogs still remain at the heart of my work, I find much of my inspiration through sweet, everyday moments, memoirs, and nostalgic scenes. I work across illustration, comics, and animation, and am especially passionate in using storytelling as a means of exploring identity and belonging. I am most drawn to personal narratives and how they can serve as a lens to explore the broader life experiences that make us human. Through my work, I hope to tell stories that spark empathy and invite meaningful conversations across our communities.

Currently, I’m a fourth-year undergraduate student at Boston College studying marketing and studio art.

When I’m not drawing, you can usually find me going on long walks, cafe hopping, shopping, or catching up with the latest K-drama!
