It is truly a privilege to share my creative journey with you. My path to art began during a dark period in my life when, as a teenager, I struggled with severe mental health challenges, particularly anorexia. For nearly a decade, I battled this illness, which eventually led me to spend over a year in the hospital. It was a tough and transformative time, but art saved my life.

At the time, I didn’t realize how much of my healing was happening through the process of creating. Every day, I sketched, painted, and drew, pouring my emotions into my work. It was my way of calming my mind and expressing what I couldn’t say with words. Looking back now, I can see that the art I created during those years was deeply emotional and sometimes even dark. But it was an outlet, a safe space where I could process my struggles. I’m incredibly grateful for that opportunity, as it gave me the ability to work through life-threatening behaviors and a toxic mindset.

When I moved to Australia, I continued using the skills I had developed to overcome anorexia. Through this, I discovered a newfound love for life. My artwork began to shift, becoming brighter, happier, and full of colour—reflecting my joy for living.

Art has become my purpose. Now, I create with the intention: to add value, connect people, spark curiosity, offer moments of reflection, and enhance emotional well-being.
