My name is Francisca (pronounced like San Francisco, but with an A at the end), but everybody calls me Fran. I'm a queer illustrator, author and content creator currently living and working in Brooklyn, NYC.
I was born and raised in Chile (this is why I have a lovely accent) and since 2013 I've been living abroad, away from family, friends and Chilean empanadas. (I miss all of them)
In a normal week you'll find me at my studio drinking coffee and working on my upcoming graphic novel or designing stationery for my online store We Are Nice Humans. Part of what I love about being a creator is the chance to wear different hats; while I work on projects and comics, I like to show my life (with its ups and downs) on my youtube channel and social media. This honesty and vulnerability has allowed me to connect with my audience, and with their help and support I've been able to keep working on my projects full time.
When I'm not at my studio I'm probably at home reading, baking, cuddling with my soft cat Hamburguesa or at my local park volunteering. I recently finished the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time challenge (it's in the Rolling Stone website!) so I'm looking for new lists to keep learning about music.
