When chronic illness tried to take my life, I took it back. 

    At the lowest point of my health, I was on oxygen and could hardly take myself to the bathroom. Feeling like a skeleton of myself, I knew something deeper was off beyond my health, which was nearing the point of no return. 

    When I realized webcomics existed and I could be my own publisher without the grueling schedule of my favorite manga artists, that's exactly what I did - ALL I did. Armed with my first digital drawing tablet and a bed tray for my laptop, creating that first comic gave me a reason to wake up and keep living through absolute hell. I reminded myself every single day, "If I don't fight through this, who else will finish my favorite story?" 

    Stories like RESONANCE, MY SHY ALPHA, and WHAT-SEXUAL?? are the direct result of that! My most popular comic, WHAT-SEXUAL??, revealed every secret I kept from myself about my identity, allowing me to heal my heart and soul by coming out as a pansexual and transgender man. From then on, healing physically became easier. I never thought I would survive past 17, and I'm now 28! 

    After surviving a 9-year battle with severe chronic Lyme Disease, I feel like I have a second chance at life. My dream is to use it to create stories with messages I wish I had growing up, including representation of transgender, bisexual, and chronically ill characters in particular.

    Sometimes I still have tougher days, but I have the best coping mechanism in the world; I write or draw for hours on end, diving into fictional worlds I've discovered deep in my heart. I can't work a 9-5 job without physical consequences, but I can draw and write my ass off!
