A4: 林明子さん is my biggest influence! I'm Japanese so I grew up reading her and 筒井頼子さん's stories. She captures Japanese sceneries and Japanese kids so well!

A3: I can be really influenced by a lot of video games, the color and humor in them really gets my brain into overdrive. I especially love the Mario games in particular, and all the fun monsters in the Zelda series!
