"Jane had said that hope was a survival trait, and now I was starting to understand why. When we face adversity, it is hope that gives us the confidence to rally our indomitable spirit to overcome it." - Douglas Abrams, The Book of Hope #hope #janegoodall #thebookofhope

I stand by Palestine. Sail to Gaza. Break the siege. Stop the genocide. This is humanity.

Forgot to share this here lmao My recent commission work! A popup food pyramid for ASD children. Commission is open! I don't support AI art. I designed the popup and managed the production. #commission #paper

We're back on the market grind. This might be the last of the year. I'm selling my book and my old stocks of pop-up greeting cards at both events. Mark your calendars and come say hi!

I just did the best pitch deck ever, and Im proud of it. Not expecting to win, but man, if I had done this, I could have won during my residency. I AM A BUSINESSMAN Excuse the title. Im still tweaking it, and this title slide is usually the last thing to do.

I put the L (ěl) in celebrate (sĕl'ə-brãt).

A finished product starts with very ugly shapes. Disclaimer: The client provided the graphics that are AI-generated. I do not stand with AI art, and this is not within my control, I'm being paid for the mechanism, and I need it to survive... sadly #paperengineer #popupcard #commission

Early this week, I had the opportunity to share my book and the art of paper engineer to kids at Sri Aria School in Bukit Jelutong. I've learnt a lot of things from them and had so much fun. Thank you to Ms. Fia, other teachers, and the students! #paperengineer
