I'm Jazz! I am a young adult, and I've been obsessed with anthros for as long as I can remember. When I found the furry community, I found my best friends, and a place to feel like myself; artistic, autistic, animalistic. I feel like a boy who likes girly things, and a girl who likes boy-ly things. I'm somewhere in between both presentation-wise, and my fursona and I use they/them. My special interest is anthropomorphism; the good of it, such as furries and kemonomimis, and the bad, such as how it gets in the way of animal research and understanding. I love to draw, and it is the main thing I have been teaching it to myself obsessively from my toddler to teenage years. Now in my 20s, my life is a bit more busy, but I still adore art and furry culture, forever and ever.

I am a therian of a pink hairless cat, and a creme barred lahore pigeon (imagine a sphynx with pigeon wings!). I'm also an purple carbuncle theriomythic, and Espeon/Ruby Carbuncle/Final Fantasy Carbuncle, Makoto Yuki, Yuugi Mutou, Jun Kurosu, Jade Harley, and Ren Amamiya (or Akira Kurusu) fictionkin. I am otherhearted/kith with old-school sparkledogs and sparklecats. Overall, I'm a plucky and sensitive, but ultimately domesticated, upbeat, and warm creature.
Otherkin stuff isn't really "just for fun" in my life; rather, it is a spiritual way to process the disconnect from other humans I've felt while growing up, and, more presently, interest in re-incarnation, even from the world of fiction. That being said, "doubles" are a concern I've never had...there are so many animals in a particular species, and so many brains and therefore offshoots of a past life, so everyone is a "double"-- no, a quadruple...

As of 2022, I am a full-time college student studying for a master's degree in clinical psychology. I have studied ornithology as a massive bird enjoyer (& longtime poultrykeeper), and will return to the subject later on in life, but I am currently majoring in clinical psychology because I wish to pursue mental health research and science-backed counseling techniques as a career. Yes, art is surprisingly not my career; I wish for it to stay a fun hobby, a side job at most when I am in need. I feel naturally lead to learning about the human mind because I really want to understand people- including myself -better, and be a kinder and more nuanced person than ever before. I love many forms of psychology, even outside of clin., and I love to read journal research! This does mean I may be too busy to consistently update the site, but I'll do my best!

Some other random facts about me:
My favorite food is probably shrimp tempura roll, such as godzilla roll. I love seafood, spicy food, and for dessert I'll take anything with marzipan!~
I've worked in animal care for years, both domestic and wildlife rehab.
I am visually impaired enough to require a cane when going out; I was born blind, and have lens implants. The gift of sight is one of the most special I have ever been given...seeing as I am a visual artist now.
Look at my fursona!
