Born and raised in Los Angeles, i grew up in a creative household with two artistic parents. I was always encouraged to explore art across many different fields, from music to painting to sewing, which has greatly influenced my aesthetics and the way in which I create. Being around the visual arts and fashion industry from a young age has shown me how to build a balance between creativity and structure. My studies in critical thinking and formal art analysis regarding the relationship between line, shape, color, texture, and composition has transferred over into my fashion design philosophy. I've continued to study this notion when I moved to new york and started studying at Parsons school of Design in 2018. After graduating in 2023, I continue to strive to grow in both my personal and professional life.
