- Artist's Statement:
- Raised in a single-parent household on the Lower East Side, I carry the neighborhood's scrappy, resourceful spirit into my work. Just like the LES, which thrives on change, I've learned to make the most of limited resources and tackle challenges head-on. My mother's encouragement to express myself creatively shaped my hands-on, adaptable approach to design, where I focus on creating meaningful, authentic stories that connect with the audience.
