I create to reveal the beauty in overlooked materials and moments, transforming what’s unseen into unique sculpture and photographic art.

My favorite art to create exists at the intersection of cuisine, sculpture, and photography. Through food, I craft sensory, fleeting experiences rooted in care and precision. Sculpture allows me to shape material and history into forms that speak to labor and identity. Photography, enhanced through my hyper-sharpening technique, transforms surface into depth—revealing unseen dimensions and inviting deeper perception..
Where do you find inspiration?As a multidisciplinary creative, I draw inspiration from life itself—its rhythms, textures, and quiet details. Found objects carry histories that inform my sculptural work, while seasonal ingredients guide my culinary expression, grounding it in time and place. I’m especially drawn to overlooked beauty—the subtle patterns, imperfections, and moments that often go unnoticed—transforming them into work that invites deeper reflection and awareness..
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000, I would divide the investment between stability and growth—allocating half toward building a financial nest egg for my family, and the other half toward advancing my artistic practice. This would allow me to pursue international residencies, expanding my global perspective, while also hiring a professional art manager to help strategically guide and elevate my career trajectory.
