About Me

Growing up in Southern California, I’ve been surrounded by art and culture all my life, but my creative journey truly began at home. Coming from an extremely artistic family, my parents introduced me to drawing at a young age, and art quickly became my primary means of communication. Over time, I discovered that art was more than self-expression—it was a way to connect with others. This realization came to me during the process of creating my AP Art Portfolio in high school, where I explored the question, “Is the loss of childhood a sad or beautiful thing?”. Through a series of pieces, I unpacked this idea, learning how art can evoke shared emotions and tell powerful stories.

My passion for creating impactful experiences extended naturally to my love of theme parks, especially Disneyland. For me, Disneyland was more than a magical escape—it was a place where people from all walks of life came together, united in moments of joy and childlike wonder. Experiencing that connection inspired my lifelong aspiration: to become a creator of immersive experiences that bring people together. This, combined with my passion for interior design and architecture, has fueled my goal of crafting spaces that are not only visually stunning but also deeply emotive—environments where people feel connected, inspired, and immersed in meaningful stories. I am equally committed to ensuring that this philosophy extends throughout my professional work, creating spaces that are accessible and inclusive for everyone.

I’m currently pursuing a BFA in Themed Entertainment Design at the University of Southern California, along with double minors in Fashion and Visual Narrative Art at USC Roski’s School of Art and Design. My journey has been enriched by diverse experiences, including interior design internships, as well as a summer studying at the Savannah College of Art and Design. These experiences have broadened my perspective, allowing me to integrate storytelling, visual design, and spatial planning into my work.

Set to graduate in 2028, I am eager to bring my vision to life in the themed entertainment and design industries. Whether crafting immersive environments, developing compelling narratives, or designing spaces that inspire, my goal is to create impactful experiences that connect people and leave a lasting impression.
