I’m Rachel! I’m a Filipino-American artist living in California. I’m about to finish an Associate in Arts for transfer, and am pursuing a BFA in animation.

I like creating fun, colorful art. My biggest influences are from my childhood in the late 90s and early 00s. I grew up with both anime and western cartoons, both cel and digital animation. Video games are a big inspiration as well — some of my very first attempts at animation (other than stick figures in the corner of a notebook) were all in pixel art!

I hope I get to work on a show, movie, or game that inspires others to start drawing, too, just like what inspired me.
