She has her works in private, museum, and corporate collections. Even though she studied drawing and painting in high school, she pursued a career as a professional photographer for several magazines in her early 20s. Even though she enjoyed photography, it was not fulfilling her desire to create, so she went abroad to rekindle her love of art. Watercolor was something she stumbled upon by accident, but she quickly fell in love with it.
