About Me

I am a curious and investigative researcher and data scientist who blends analytical rigor with creative insight. I believe data itself is meaningless without revealing the compelling stories behind. When I step away from the screen, I explore the world through creative arts and the shutter of my camera.

Atelier & Canvas

My connection with art began early, drawn by the freedom it offered to express emotion without rules or boundaries. Over time, I came to see art not just as creation, but as communication—a way to translate inner thoughts into form when words fall short. Each line became part of a personal narrative, shaping how I understand both the world and myself.

The Creative Process

Mixed Media / Portfolio

Pen sketches have long been a quiet constant in my life. What began as drawings beside lecture notes became a way to soften rigid formulas with emotion and balance. Trained as an artist in high school, I still find grounding and focus in the delicacy of pencil and line, using each sketch as a way to translate complexity into something human.

Culinary Arts & Gastronomy

Cooking is where creativity meets connection. Sharing thoughtfully prepared meals with friends is central to my social life and a hobby driven by a genuine love for great food.
