A 2010’s Tumblr Survivor, I started my creative career through observation. I studied the masters - the earliest internet microcelebrities. I navigated a flurry of fandoms & aesthetics, which inspired my love for making and contributing to culture.

I value conversation and the creative process. I favor the melodramatic and absurdly awkward. You can find me drawing typefaces in the dirt or reciting sketches from I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson.

Formerly the holder of a scared inert brain, I know what it looks like when an idea dies. I now enjoy bringing life to stillness.

NOTABLE ISA TRIVIA:

I am a No Sabo kid

The New York-based, Emmy and Cannes-winning illustrator & creative director Kevin Lyons called me an artist.

I have been told by different folks that my name translates to Jesus and number one in Arabic and Tagalog, respectively.

My Tumblr blog name was cringe (I landed on [REDACTED]).

I have lived many lives as a  teenaged chameleon who was obsessed with just about everything. My phases included Italian mafia and martial arts movies.
