I'm a huge anime fan and love other creators out there who have inspired me to take on my own shop. The idea of doing something that I enjoy and getting more integrated with the community has now become an attainable reality. I first started gathering materials in January 2022 and officially opened my Etsy shop in April 2022. Despite still being a fairly small shop, I'm proud to say that I attended my first artist alley at Otakufest in 2023 and made my first wholesale order to Texas in April 2023.
I now run three platforms (BigCartel, Etsy, Tiktok Shop) and I hope to pursue more artist alley opportunities in the future.
