About Me
I discovered industrial design in community college after a painting professor noticed my creative ability and suggested I explore design instead of art. Growing up in Los Angeles, I was influenced by skateboarding, street culture, and hands-on making‚ elements that continue to shape my work. One project that reflects this is my recycled skateboard series, where I repurposed old decks into colorful wooden earrings, combining material reuse, craft, and product storytelling.
