Hi, I am Alan, you might know me as Mao, my online handle. I am a student at CU Boulder and a part time content creator and photographer. I am going to school for a degree in literature, with the ultimate goal to finish my masters and doctorates in educational administration and educational development. I stream video games on Twitch on the side, and cosplay and take cosplay photography prior to the pandemic. I'm a bisexual cisgender male and a first generation Asian American and the first in my immediate family to attend university. I view art as the creation of material, with many mediums stemming from the static, drawings, pictures. Art is the act of human expression, drawing notions of life and experience and messages from the ether to be conveyed to others.
