creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.

hobbies & INterests
PHOTOGRAPHY
Photography is my creative outlet outside of design. I enjoy capturing moments, experimenting with light and composition, and exploring the world through a lens. It sharpens my eye for detail, informs my design sensibility, and inspires fresh ideas in my creative work.
SCULPTING
Sculpting is my hands-on creative escape. I enjoy shaping materials into forms, exploring texture and dimension, and bringing ideas to life in three dimensions. It enhances my attention to detail, strengthens my spatial awareness, and inspires fresh approaches in my design work.
event planning
Event planning is my creative and organizational outlet. I enjoy designing experiences, coordinating details, and bringing people together in memorable ways. This hobby strengthens my project management skills, attention to detail, and ability to see the big picture—skills that seamlessly translate into my design work.
