I’m Diego Xander Ignatius Valencia, an artist, designer, and current Izakaya bartender from Los Angeles!
For me, pursuing art & design is its own adventure. That’s why I spent my college years across the country in Worcester, Massachusetts, and I even completed my senior capstone in Osaka, Japan–I’m always on the hunt for new experiences that I can incorporate in my works.
Right now, I’m creating works that bring joy to online netizens, and I’m looking forwards to any opportunity that would allow me to have even more people smile.
