Hello! My name is Ray. I am a Chinese-Japanese Illustrator and a Visual Development and general 2D artist. I am currently a Marketing Character Artist for Consumer Products at Illumination Entertainment. 

​

In the past few years, I have been making sure that the Minions and other Illumination IP characters look right and proper in all consumer products all around the world, on top of concepting and creating art assets for style guides. I also had the opportunity to draw BTS members as Minions for BTS x DM4 Collaboration, which was used on various merchandises and Funko-Pop figures! 

​

Before Illumination, I graduated from Academy of Art University in San Francisco with BFA in Illustration, and was a freelance illustrator. I have experience in various 2D needs not limited to illustration, but also in storyboarding, product design, children's book, character design for games, etc. I am on my journey to become the ultimate 2D handyman!

​

Outside work, I have been working on a small designer toy and branding business with my husband, who has been deciphering my blabber on ideas and 3D print them. ​​​
