What do I want to achieve?

Since I was young, I have always been interested in being creative in multiple mediums. My passion has always been highlighting narrative or story in anything that I want to create. My friend once, called me a “Heyoka”, who is a type of mythical being in certain Native American cultures, that is considered a very unusual empath. I take pride in such a moniker. I have been lucky to have lived in many different countries around Asia, and therefore have been very fortunate to learn hundreds of stories that stem from different political, cultural, social, and environmental issues from everywhere I’ve lived. My dream is to one day be able to design clothing that can adequately tell a narrative.

 

What do I want to achieve?

I am looking towards being able to conceptualise and design textiles and garments at the highest level. It has always been my dream to elevate my sense of creativity from something basic to something a bit more higher-end in artistry & innovation.
