Hello! My name is Sonya

I'm a Chinese-American designer/illustrator currently working at Titmouse as a character designer and volunteering with the wonderful team at Welcome to Chinatown. My hope is to create characters that people can resonate with, and stories that help them self-reflect and connect with one another. 

In 2016, I graduated from MIT where I majored in the Art, Culture, and Technology stream of the Architecture department, culminating in a public art thesis installation involving movable grass triangles. After a brief period working as a UI/UX designer, I decided to pursue my passion of art and animation.

When I'm not creepily sketching people on the train or at the park, you can find me taking dance workshops, snapping pictures of people and things around me, cooking something exciting with eggs, or trying to will vegetables to grow in my apartment’s subpar natural light.

If you want to work together or chat, please feel free to reach out on any of my social platforms or send an email my way!
