I go by Catherine, Cat, or Catnotkat. I have a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Communications Design and an Associate's Degree in Graphic Design and Illustration. I am a Chinese American, born and raised in New York. My passions include designing, crafting, and baking. In my spare time, I enjoy trying out new hobbies. My favorite food is tacos and my favorite type of drink is bubble tea.
I have been baking since middle school when I decided to bake my dad a birthday cake one time. I remember we didn't have enough sugar in the house, so I used cinnamon sugar, which made the cake taste like carrot cake, especially since I used cream cheese frosting. Ever since then, I have helped bake for club bake sales or baked just for fun. I mostly enjoy baking simple recipes like butter cookies or cupcakes but sometimes I like to make life more difficult or fun by baking and decorating a whole cake.
Toro is a Cavapoo and I named Toro after the character Totoro from the 1998 Studio Ghibli film "My Neighbor Totoro." However, the name Toro also means "fatty tuna" in Japanese and "bull" in Spanish. As a coincidence, my parents owned a Japanese restaurant at the time, so they initially thought I had named my pet after fatty tuna. It's amusing how Toro's appearance can change in photos depending on the length of his hair.
