I’ve been creative for as long as I can remember. My mom loves to tell the story of how I’d spend hours with crayons and a drawing book when I was just three—completely immersed in my own little world of color and shapes. Crafting, jewelry making, and painting have always been deeply rooted passions for me.The turning point came when my mom noticed I had a natural flair for jewelry design and encouraged me to pursue it more seriously. She enrolled me in a certification course, and that experience opened up a whole new dimension. I learned so much, and what started as a hobby has now grown into a second profession that brings me immense joy.Here’s a fun fact: I’m actually a scientist with a PhD in Immunology! My background in research has shaped how I approach art—with curiosity, precision, and a love for experimentation.One thing most people don’t realize is just how versatile polymer clay is. It’s an incredible medium that can mimic everything from natural stone to metal, leather, fabric, and even plastic. I love showing people how something so simple can be transformed into wearable art that tells a story.Teaching workshops allows me to share that magic—to help others discover the joy of creating something beautiful and meaningful with their own hands.
