About me

My mom and my grandma are both fashion designers, so I grew up in the industry, designing my own clothes, visiting their boutiques and production sites, and even learning how to sew and my own pieces from scratch. But more recently, I have been exploring the business side of things, and I have just finished two marketing and research related Internships while at university. I also have a blog where I love writing about all the different topics that interest me, from fashion to personal development.

Now as a Computer Science student at UniMelb, I find myself more and more drawn to the creative and commercial side of things. I love writing, I love creating content whether that's videos or photography, and I've always been curious about how businesses work. I took business classes in high school and I think my internship experiences have given me some real insight into how commerce actually operates behind the scenes.

I think what excites me most is this intersection of fashion and business, where creativity meets strategy, where data informs design, and where the industry side of fashion is just as fascinating as the creative side.

Photography

I see the world through framing, light, and texture. Here's some of what I've captured.
