She has worked with Vogue, Max Mara, Teen Vogue, Globe-Trotter, Harrods, Samsung, Tiffany & Co and Mulberry. She is known for her illustrations of women that represent the art and fashion worlds combined into one, focusing on line, shape, and color. Her artwork is exhibited in galleries in London, Hong Kong, and New York.[3]
