Riss Zanfei

Riss Zanfei is the lead artist and designer for Tasty Peach Studios, your favorite plush brand! She is also the official designer and artist for COAF, and is the voice and talent behind the Chimera Vtuber, Kaimeriss!

Riss has been creating art for Tasty Peach for 10+ years, and has loads of experience in how to make the dreams of creating plush come true! She and her team run Tasty Peach Studios, which began as a small shop on Etsy and has grown to having a storefront in Mishawaka, IN.

She grew her large online presence through Kickstarter, Indiegogo and Twitch and the brand is now officially globally licensed! That means if you walk into a Hot Topic, Claires, or your local aquarium, you're likely to see her plush and designs waiting for you to take home.

An expert in building an online following and fostering a supportive community, she has raised over $33,000 on Twitch for charity, and primarily streams as her Vtuber, Kaimeriss. Make sure to visit one of her panels to learn from her about running a small business as an artist or developing a Vtuber. Outside of the convention, you can check out her next stream at twitch.tv/risstv!
