I also teach advertising at School of Visual Arts.
I believe Gen Z can save our industry.

Taiwan born, raised in LA, based in BK. Eldest daughter to immigrant parents.
Big sports fan, occasional observer of men’s sports. Lifelong anime nerd.
INFJ and a Cancer stellium, meaning my chart has 3+ Cancer signs. And it also means I’m a sensitive creative who cares deeply for the people around her, but if you speak poorly of my Dodgers, I will show no mercy.
Please love me anyways.
