I am a senior in the B.A. Design program at California State University, Long Beach, graduating this spring. Passionate about product design, I enjoy exploring creative possibilities, particularly in furniture and interior design, though I’m excited to embrace opportunities across the design field. In addition to design, I love spending time in nature, traveling, and surfing. My artistic interests extend to painting, film photography, and linoleum block printing, which inspire and enrich my approach to design. Through my education, I’ve developed skills in 3D modeling, photorealistic rendering, and hands-on projects, preparing me to bring ideas to life in meaningful ways.
