I’m trying to chart all the movement of my life in limited axes, but it’s uncontainable within the dishes I’ve been using. It’s free, it’s vast, and perpetual.

Passionate about co-creating brighter futures, I believe in using creative approaches to tackle the fundamental questions facing contemporary society. By exploring the intersections of disciplines, I seek to uncover unexpected solutions that challenge norms. To me, design is not just about function or form - it’s about reimagining the systems and narratives that shape our lives.

In my lifelong search for “self,” I’ve come to realize one certainty: my direction and intention are rooted in breaking out of the boxes we’ve been placed in - whether by tradition, circumstance, or fear of the unknown. Being in the midst of what feels like a creative rebellion, I wish to create a ripple effect. We must unlearn, quiet the noise, and grant ourselves the permission we’ve long been denied - to explore, experiment, and uncover. So, I’m finally giving myself the time, space, and security to explore how to integrate my interdisciplinary passions into something that transcends personal ambition and corporate, capitalistic frameworks I’ve long navigated. We need to reinvent our drivers which no longer serve us.

Guided by the ethos that “We’re all just walking each other home,” I view my work as a way to bridge divides, connect the dots & illuminate paths. As we heal ourselves, we heal society. Then we’ll work as one, united, yet safe to exist as individuals in a perpetual dance of symbiosis and separation.
