About me
Creating helps me navigate the chaos of modern life.
Each piece tells a story shaped by the digital age I grew up in.
My design journey began in middle school on Tumblr, where I spent hours adding interactive features and curating an aesthetic content feed on my new pink laptop. This early passion for creativity led me to study painting, film photography, and wearable art in high school. I then attended Otis College of Art and Design, where I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting and a minor in the Teaching Credential program.
During this time, I began to explore abstraction, leading to my first solo exhibition, “We Come in PPC”, showcased in 2021. The collection featured optical paintings and sculptures that reflected themes of polarity and balance, inspired by my experience navigating the digital age.
After graduating, I studied user experience and web design while building my portfolio. I continue to develop my artistic voice in a new way, creating designs that are not only visually compelling but also intuitive and engaging. I then completed two certifications in UX design; first, the California Institute of the Arts UX/UI Specialization in 2024, and then the Google UX Design certification in 2025.
In 2025, I started Creative Community LA, a monthly event to connect creatives, dreamers, and doers in the Los Angeles area. Each event features interactive art projects and music by live musicians, singers, and/or DJs. The goal is to grow the community as an inclusive space to create and connect, provide resources, hold affordable art classes, and find a studio space for larger projects.
I’m excited about opportunities that merge my artistic background, design experience, and community art agenda. Feel free to explore my portfolio and connect through email or Instagram.
