Since childhood, drawing has always been a part of my life, but when I grew up, I turned to management studies. After working for several companies, I felt that I was not fulfilled. I drew non-stop even at work. So in 2019, I decided to start my own small business and show people my kids' illustrations on Instagram. The comments were growing, my world was very appreciated. Today, this is my main business, and I am extremely proud to make my passion my job, and I am so grateful to my followers who write me adorable words every day and motivate me to continue on this path.

My vision is to bring happiness to people. Through my illustrations, I want to bring a little poetry in this crazy world. I'm just a big kid myself, so if my followers can be transported back to their childhood for a few seconds, for me, then I have accomplished my mission.

I have a small business, all my illustrations are handmade, I paint, print, pack orders. Add to this communication on social media, accounting, it is necessary to know how to manage all aspects of entrepreneurship. Mother of two small children, I alternate my activity and my children, it is not always easy, it is necessary to be very organized, rigorous and to oblige to work the weekends.
