Hi, I’m Jules, the creator behind Baozai Friends! As an AAPI and neurodivergent girl, I’ve always been passionate about art and storytelling. I studied Studio Art at The University of Texas at Austin, and now I’m bringing that creativity into making plushies that feel like little companions full of love.

At Baozai Friends, we create irresistibly cute, food-inspired animal plushies that bring joy while helping save shelter animals. Every plush sold supports our mission to give vulnerable pets a second chance at life.
