I love the quiet time of making things. Whether it’s pencil on paper or softening garlic in a pan, creating silences my loud mind and brings me a deep sense of calm; it helps me process the world around me. Visual art and culinary art might seem different, but to me, they share the same pulse—a personal story. I work across both digital and traditional mediums, drawing inspiration from fleeting moments: a shared meal, an expressive face, or the nostalgia of a place once visited.

I’m drawn to experimentation and a wide range of styles, letting versatility shape my practice rather than committing to a single aesthetic. As I continue my reach through professional projects, I always make space for personal work—pieces that reflect my current state of mind on this artistic journey. Each creation is an opportunity to explore, reflect, and evolve.
