Transitioning from my role as a Gardening Educator and farmer, I returned to school in 2021 to explore media arts and animation. My enduring fascination with plants continued as I delved into botany plant identification classes. Today, my portfolio is a testament to the ongoing obsession that fuels my artistic exploration and celebrates the captivating allure of flora.
