Hey, happy to be here.

Thanks for having me.

Yeah, I think that it's been a really fun career to have.

I honestly got into design and technology at a pretty young age, so I have been playing games my whole life.

And around the age of 10, really weird to say, this must've been like 2000, oh no, 1999.

Oh my God.

I remember like, I learned, I taught myself how to essentially like make these dress up dolls because I was a huge fan of anime like Sailor Moon.

And I just wanted to experiment with fashion.

And I found out that, you know, if you essentially like program these dolls, you could like change their clothes and you could have your own original characters.

And I was like, wow, technology is magical.

It was digital.

It was all like a digital drop the doll kind of thing.

Yeah.

So it was like a really good, wholesome period of time.

And yeah, you know, me being like a 10 year old, I was like obsessed.

You know, you could literally like illustrate as many clothes as you wanted to.

And I just felt like that showed me the power of what technology could be.

And so then fast forward a couple of years, I was in high school and I ended up taking like,

I went to this high school that was focused on like the visual arts, performing arts, like different kinds of creativity.

And I was an art student there.
