My name is Alyssa Arielle Noelle Yap Ong (aka. Rielle). 

I am a tea-sipping story-smith specializing in backgrounds, props and visual development. I graduated from the University of Hong Kong with a B.A. in Comparative Literature, and more recently, from the Savannah College of Art and Design with a B.F.A in Animation. 

Being a Chinese-Filipino who was raised in Hong Kong, I grew up in a space lacking space and permanence; so I planted roots in the stories I collected and connect with others through what I create. 

Thank you for exploring my art, and I hope to keep connected!
