from saipan
to los angleles
my industrial design journey started from saipan.
I believe we should make the most of every day we have.
my approach to design is clear: focus on what matters most and give it your all. with every project, I push myself further, always aiming to create something special.
industrial design
I fell in love with industrial design in eighth grade when I realized that my creations could positively impact lives worldwide.
passion
Grew up on Saipan, a small island where learning about design wasn't easy.
From books to videos, practicing my drawing and design skills every chance I got.

artcenter
all those late nights of practice paid off when I got accepted to ArtCenter, one of the best design schools in the world. Now that I'm here, I put my whole heart into learning to perfect my work.
not giving up
my journey taught me that hard work always leads somewhere good.
starting from a tiny island, I turned my dream into reality through dedication and never giving up.
for fun
apart from design, I've always loved creative storytelling—planning, storyboarding, filming, and editing short films and music videos. It’s been my passion since I was young.
