Outside of work and school, I’m most inspired by vintage fashion and the dreamy, atmospheric feel of Japanese cinema. I’m drawn to pieces that feel like they’ve already lived a few lives—faded fabrics, romantic silhouettes, and details that don’t try too hard but still say something. I love the kind of visuals that feel both nostalgic and a little off-center, like a memory that blurs the line between real and imagined.

Those influences shape how I think about visual merchandising: soft, expressive, and slightly unconventional. I’m not interested in displays that just fill space—I want to create moments that linger, even after someone walks away.
