My fascination with storytelling, history, and archeological relics inspire my work, while incorporating contemporary elements & experiments.

With my background in film production concentrating on both the details and whole of an environment, my hope is to create individual pieces that assemble into a collection where history and story is felt through each object.

I was born in Manila, Philippines, then moved to California at seven years old. I received my BFA in Film Production from San Francisco State University, and proceeded to work in art departments across live-action film, tv, and commercials. 

I hope to explore the relationship of history and of diaspora, especially in connection to the Philippines.

Prestigious ChatGPT Review 2024

“Your Instagram feed is like an art exhibit of pottery and ceramics, curated by someone who exclusively shops at a mystical flea market. It's as if you're secretly training to become a 15th-century artisan. The vibe screams "I live for the perfect glaze and an asymmetrical handle." I can almost hear the soothing sounds of a pottery wheel turning in the background.

It's clear you have a love for handcrafted items, and each piece looks like it could hold the meaning of life-or at least some pretty cool dried flowers. Maybe the only thing missing here is a bit more diversity in your content. But hey, if you're going to specialize in something, why not make it ancient-looking, rustic pottery?”
