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.
