Is this your only job?
Nope. I also work as a program manager for a cultural house where I organize debates, talks, lectures, meetings, tours, and exhibitions.
When did you realize you had this talent?
From the moment I could hold a pencil, although I never took it very seriously until recently.
Where do you find your inspiration?
In museums, books, walking through cities, traveling, and lots and lots of websites (including Etsy).
Who has been the most supportive of your work?
Eh. Me? And my boyfriend. He's been awesome and has really been pushing me to take the time to draw more.
What is one thing you would like to accomplish that you haven't yet?
I'd like for my journals to get published and also I would love to eventually work somewhere whereI can express my artistic side a bit more.
What are your other hobbies?
I blog, write, take pictures, do a lot of bikram yoga, play the silverflute, and I'm pretty good at Rockband.
What are your words to live by or favorite quote?
"The most important thing is this: To be able at any moment to sacrifice what we are for what we could become."
