Building something rooted in history, community, and purpose.

This work lives in my home studio—surrounded by family history, fabric, memory, and the quiet presence of those who came before me.

Nothing about this is rushed. Nothing is borrowed.

It’s built from what was always ours.

When the foundation is real, the work can weather anything. 🌱

Handmade for the screen.

These dolls were built by hand for Hysteria! now streaming on Peacock. Fabric bodies, embroidered faces, yarn hair, hand-sewn costumes — every detail made in the studio.

This is the work. ✂️🧵
