I am a Fulbright Nehru Scholar for 2023/2024 and an alumnus of the Rhode Island School of Design, class of 2020.


My work is deeply rooted in extensive research on cultural practices and a profound understanding of the materials I use. Collaborating with artisans from India, Italy, and Mexico, I specialize in diverse textile and design techniques.


Through these collaborations, I've developed a heartfelt appreciation for the history and craftsmanship behind each piece. My designs are a testament to meticulous research and unwavering dedication to techniques such as embroidery, tailoring, and leather making.
