About

I am an industrial designer/creative based in Los Angeles. I find inspiration and a desire to create through creating connections with people around me. I seek to create empathetic solutions through playful experimentation, research, and embracing the chaos that comes with the ambiguity of the design process. In my free time I enjoy knitting, collecting stationary, and finding new music.

This project involves the design and development of an at-home darkroom kit that pays homage to the film brand "Kodak." The set features an enlarger, a grain focuser, and a safe light. These branded products attempt to integrate hobbies and within our living spaces, becoming a reflection of our identities. With a profound respect for the legacy of "Kodak," the darkroom kit aims to capture the essence of traditional film photography while embracing modern conveniences. The goal is to enable individuals to immerse themselves in the art of photography within the comfort of their homes. The goal of "at home film lab" is to create a unique and enriching experience that not only fosters a connection to the craft of photography but also becomes an expression of one's personal identity and passion.
