Left brain for logic, right for creativity? I use both.I study Electrical Engineering because Math is my passion—and Design is math (geometry, ratios, structure). Like a skilled engineer (or that plumber who knows exactly where to strike), I don't make random strokes. I solve visual problems with precision, blending the technical with the artistic.

Over the past 5 years, I’ve worked across character design, illustration, and creative support—helping concepts evolve into something people can truly connect with.

01

Origin

It began with my brother and an obsession with Anime (Digimon, Steins;Gate), RPGs, and J-Music. After feeling out of place on Instagram, I migrated to Twitter and discovered the VTuber scene through Deusa Maah. Since 2022, this community hasn't just been an audience; it’s been my home.

02

Explorer

I don't do labels; I just love drawing. Delicate characters or fierce dragons—I’m an explorer mapping new territories.I might not be the most experienced artist yet, but I am the most passionate about being alp. Every request isn't just a job; it's a new expedition to bring your imagination to reality.

✶ The alp

alp is personal (literally, my initials). It’s built on helping people through true design, not just transactions.I live for those 'DUDE! I just had an idea!' shower moments. That unfiltered excitement is my fuel. So, take a look at my work. If you like what you see and feel the spark, you know where to find me.
