My name is Vivian and I am a Cali-raised, Brooklyn-based, Taiwanese-American illustrator.

Emotions play a huge role in my work and it is my passion to capture the range of feelings that every human being experiences. I create visuals to tell stories and bring excitement and individuality to each campaign I touch. My illustrative works explores women's and POC voices, and my personal work focuses on themes of self-discovery and internal reflection. I cherish quiet and insightful moments, and I strive to depict them in my work.

I have in-house art direction experience as a Senior Art Director at Ralph Creative and Cashmere Agency. I earned a BFA in Illustration (design track) from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California in 2013.

When I am not illustrating, I am creating tattoos under the name Ginseng Ink.

I’m available for freelance projects & live drawing events.
