I am a crochet artist and photographer, and for me, creating is more than just a passion—it’s my meditation, my way of storytelling. I picked up my crochet hook at nine years old and never put it down, drawn to the magic of turning simple threads into something both beautiful and useful.
At twelve, I bought my first camera with a $10 gift from my godfather, using it to document my family’s journey as we immigrated to Canada that same year. In my crochet work, I strive to blend artistry with function, crafting pieces that aren’t just visually appealing but also comfortable and wearable. Natural materials inspire me, bringing
warmth and authenticity to everything I create. My work has been showcased in local galleries and cherished by a growing community of supporters on social media.
