Hard of hearing since birth, she started practicing on making comics from the very first time she held colored pencils. Growing up, she studied on Special Education in Volos, learned greek sign language, and became the first artist to create comics on disability in Greece, titled “Willer and Donna: A Comic About Diversity”. She has also worked on the fanzines “Albatross”, “Zaria” and on a horror World War 1 comic story, whilst her doodles have been used to illustrate books and local websites. In the few days she doesn’t drive around on her vespa, she works as a special education teacher. She lives in Zografou, Athens.
