UPDATED. Over the Summer, I was hired as a studio assistant for Takashi Murakami at Kaikai Kiki New York Studio. It has been intense yet exciting job. I am learning a lot!

Aside from that, I had an amazing collaboration with a writer, Francesca Lia Block, and created a book called "Wood Nymph Seeks Centaur." It is an unique mythological dating guidebook. There are 24 different characters (12 male and 12 female mythological characters). It is out in bookstore everywhere.

Also, I was interviewed by NICHE Magazine. Please check the current issue (4th) to read the full interview.
