I got a full time job, does that mean I'm an adult now?
2026
12 x 17 inches
cotton fabric, thread, my work schedule calendar

This piece was inspired by my reality of my life post grad. I wasn’t in school anymore. I had just gotten a job at a grocery store. I didn’t know how to just be. I graduated May 18 and started this job on June 1. Through documenting my work schedule in June and July, I think back to how my summers used to be a fun break. And adulthood isn’t as shiny as I used to view it as...

June Schedule - Working Days - 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15, 16, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30

July Schedule - Working Days - 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 31

everything i've ever known (is coming to an end)
2026
3 x 4 x 2 feet (desk)
hand dyed cotton fabric, thread, wood, thrifted stool
‍
- displayed with various quilts and small books, 2023-25
- this work is interactive; viewers can take a seat and look through the books gently.

During my last semester of undergrad, I was feeling weird about "life" beginning. I'd only ever been in school, I had no experience in "the real world." I realized I never had a desk during my time at SAIC, and couldn't leave art school without one. SO I made a desk and chair that I had imagined. This small installation works as a safe space, a little peek into my fiber world...

‍Originally installed for SAIC's Spring Undergraduate Exhibition in April 2026

hair(cut)
2025
36 x 108 inches (longest sides)
fabric, thread, hair, hair dye

Through this work, I wanted to explore my experience with hair cuts in domestic spaces with family. A tradition within my family is cutting our own hair. For most of my life, I wished to be like all the other kids and go to a salon to get haircuts, but as I got older, I cherished the time and love that my family put into haircuts. Using cyanotyping, stamping, screen printing, and embroidery, I wanted to portray my weird relationship with hair, how I felt about getting my hair cut, and the freedom I feel now, expresing myself through my hair.

I want to go back (to the good old days when i was a kid)
2025
42.5 x 40.5 inches (longest sides)
fabric, yarn

Unfinished quilt discussing ideas of rejection. The words are from recent rejection emails from job applications. The cursive font, appearing soft, while hiding the rejection in plain sight. There are 18 quilt blocks, representing how at age 18, we're immediately called adults, even if we don't feel like it.

-ai
a series of three quilts
‍‍2025
40 x 40 inches; 32.5 x 28 inches; 34 x 32 inches
hand dyed cotton fabric & yarn, hand quilted

While AI art is gaining popularity, I wanted to make a cute but aggressive reminder to everyone that AI will never be able to make things like this. Handiwork like crocheting and sewing is something that AI will never be able to recreate, there's something about  human touch that makes these techniques so valuable.


These works were made as resistance, all my rage and feelings towards AI fueled the making of these three pieces.


They read:
"I'd like to see AI try and make this"
"I'd rather drink water than use AI"
"I'd like AI to stop being forced down my throat"
IVF Books- Our Story, What If?, IVF Now
2025
‍‍6 x 6 x 1 inches
Comics on fabric & embriodery floss

These 3 quilted books explore IVF. Not only my mom's journey with IVF, but they also serve as informative books.

I want to be remembered (April)
‍2025
14.75 x 14 inches
Hand stitched, hand quilted. Fabric, yarn, thread

This mini quilt was my first attempt at making a journal entry through stitching and quilting. This contains text from 5 journal entries throughout the month of April.



Bloom
a series of three works
‍2025
9.5 x 9 inches
Fabric, beads, yarn

Through these small quilted works, they all work to make one whole. Each third, one sister of three, is different and has different characteristics.

My Door (the side you never see)
‍2024
84 x 32 inches (7 x 2 2/3 feet)
Fabric, yarn, buttons, beads, embroidery floss

Through this quilt, I wanted to explore how much doors hide from others. A closed door hides so much behind it, like the brown side of the quilt, you would never know the other side looked so bright and colorful.


Love Letter to My Kindness
2024
20.5 x 17 inches
Made with fabric & yarn

Media Used: song lyrics, tiktok post, memes

In this work, I explored the idea of being too kind. I found that a lot of the media I was consuming was related to people's struggles with putting others above themselves. While this is something I've always struggled with, I wanted to put this into an art form. I crocheted a portrait of myself in black and white to portray this idea of putting myself in the background when considering where to put my energy and kindness. Normally, I'd never put myself in the center of a work, but part of being kind, is being kind and focusing on yourself.

Love Letter to My Younger Self
2024
22 x 27 inches
fabric, yarn, embroidery floss, ribbon, & ink on fabric


Media Used: spotify playlists, instagram post, my own photos

In this work, I wanted to explore the idea of girlhood and turning 20. In the media, I’d been seeing two things: little girls rushing to become women, and women attempting to get their girlhood back. What started as a piece about girlhood, quickly turned into something about and for my younger self. Although I wanted to keep this project more broad, so it would be more relatable, I felt very attached to this idea of reclaiming my girlhood by honoring my younger self through this small quilt. I wanted to create something that gave me and my audience a sense of nostalgia about childhood. I also wanted an aspect of it to be related to my friends who I lived through girlhood with, which is shown through the embroidered hearts. On the back of the quilt, there’s a whole other aesthetic to it, as it has more of a scrapbook look to it. The idea for the back started out as a collage of photos I wanted to use to portray girlhood, but turned out to be more so about social media and looked like a Pinterest board. The back portrays another view of girlhood, girlhood in aesthetic photos, on social media, and through popular quotes. Another important aspect of the entire piece was that most of the techniques I used were/are techniques that artsy kids could easily pick up, techniques I tried when I was little.

‍2023
15 x 13 inches unopened, 29x13 inches opened
Quilted Scrapbook with photo transfers, fabric (cotton, lace, linen, polyester), embroidery floss, ribbon, sequin, & 57 plastic ducks

In this interactive scrapbook, I explored the ideas childhood and playfulness, while also portraying growing up. The outside has a more childhood look to it, while the inside explores growing up and no longer being around family 24 hours a day anymore.
