Hello!


My name is Tuyet Mai, or most people would know me as Machi Mile from Instagram and Twitter.

Currently, studying academics is my main occupation but I have been working as a part-time freelance illustrator for 3 years.


I would consider myself as more of a rebellious type of person, trying many things in my life only to chose to settle down to study illustration on my own since I was in middle school. Creating the same thing every day wasn't my cup of tea, which immensely impacted to my art journey of continuously breaking from my own comfort zone, I never stopped pushing myself up to this point. The 5 years of experience taught me a lot, making a hobby to a career at this young age. Through this class, I hope to help you as much as I can and bring comfortability to all learners.
