ARTIST STATEMENT
I design worlds where architecture and storytelling converge. My work explores love in all its forms—romantic, familial, and spiritual—through spaces that feel both dreamlike and deeply human.
I'm inspired by the beauty and complexity of underrepresented stories, crafting environments that evoke nostalgia, curiosity, and awe. Each set becomes more than a backdrop; it's a character of its own, shaping emotion and perspective.
Production design, to me, is architecture for the soul—building empathy, memory, and meaning into every frame.
