A subcategory of my design work could be classified by my growing curiosity and love for cooking and creating with food. After moving into my first apartment, I picked up a passion for making good quality, healthy food for myself in order to nourish my body and make conscious decisions towards better health. This has stemmed into an additional method for artistic expression as I now take great pride in coming up with nutritious, inspired meals that are presented and plated tastefully. I also appreciate cooking for its ability to be influenced by culture. Having two very different cultural backgrounds, I enjoy the practice of cooking based on the influence of my parents’ and grandparents’ culture.

This hobby is subsequently furthering my appreciation for sustainable design as I have also picked up an appreciation for gardening, growing herbs, fruits and vegetables that I utilize in my cooking. The groundedness of sustainable living that comes with the continuous cycle of creating your own intake is something I hope to practice in both my design work and my personal living style.

It’s a work in progress that I hope to continue practicing and improving upon.
