Why did you decide to get into social media and graphic design?

Graphic design is my ultimate passion. Ever since I was a child, I have adored crafting visual arts and setting free my imaginative realm. I believe that the best way to showcase it is through social media and graphic design.

Where was your last holiday?

It was last August 2023, my family embarked on a memorable vacation to Japan, marking our first international trip without my father. Even though we are a bit emotional, it became an incredible experience. Our journey spanned from Tokyo to Osaka, capturing moments through countless photographs. Being avid anime enthusiasts, my sister and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to explore Akihabara and the renowned Pokemon Centre, adding an extra layer of delight to our adventure. Additionally, we had a blast at Universal Studios and made sure to snap a photo with a Minion, adding a touch of whimsy to our unforgettable trip.

What do you do in your spare time?

I spent my time playing computer and video games. I have developed a keen interest in watching numerous TV series centred around 911 emergencies, firefighters, and medical scenarios. And sometimes, I do create digital art with my tablet because I love art.

What are your favourite songs from your teenage years that you still rock out to when nobody else is listening?

My Chemical Romance songs! I can't stop singing now. When I was a young boy...

Weirdest thing you have eaten?

I am a very picky eater and have numerous allergies, I am often cautious about what I consume. One of the most peculiar incidents I encountered was when I tried eating crab, which resulted in an allergic reaction (and that was the first and last crab I ever tasted).
