About

Hello! I'm Rachel Simanjuntak(Simmon-june-talk) (she/they/he), a community organizer, diorama artist, and sometimes graphic designer based in Los Angeles. In 2018, I attended the School for Poetic Computation 10-week immersive, which jump started my path to co-founding Tiny Tech Zines. In my spare time I'm making miniature, Miyazaki-inspired dioramas.

I am currently curating zines and designing programming for Tiny Tech Zines. I am available for odd graphic design jobs and speaking engagements.
