ABOUT ME
I am a multifaceted visual artist based in the twin cities. My work ranges from but is not limited to sketchbook illustrations, paintings, textiles and lettering. As a first generation Hmong American, you can find my roots embedded in some of my work. Follow me on Instagram where my genuine curiosities are shared through my third language.
