Collection: Positions of Inheritance (3 of 4)

With Unbound: The Light She Follows, the collection shifts into liberation. No longer defined by expectation or position, she moves freely, guided not by what was assigned, but by what she chooses.

As the third piece in the Positions of Inheritance series, this work reflects the moment of becoming—where identity is no longer inherited, but self-defined.

What do you think of my newest piece?

As the second piece in the Positions of Inheritance series, this work honors the mediator, the balancer, the one who sustains connection without ever needing to be seen. 🎨🖌️

Thailand Food Hack: Did you know you can taste eve

Thailand Food Hack: Did you know you can taste everything that Thailand has to offer in one convenient location? Tucked inside ICONSIAM luxury mall is one of Bangkok’s best-kept gems: SOOKSIAM 🇹🇭✨

This ain’t your regular mall food court. Imagine the magic of a traditional Thai floating market… but elevated. Air-conditioned (because Bangkok heat is real), beautifully designed, and bringing together flavors and culture from all 77 provinces in one place. From sizzling street food and handcrafted goods to live cultural moments it’s giving authenticity and luxury convenience.

This was easily one of my favorite finds of the trip. A whole cultural experience without ever stepping outside — and yes, I absolutely ate my way through it all - No regrets. 😋

Would you try this?

When the birthday wishes really do their thing! (✨Don’t blink!✨)

No travel chaos was going to stop me from celebrating my birthday this year, and this time, I took it all the way to Bangkok, Thailand 🇹🇭 with friends and family.

From the Thai massage spas to luxury shopping at the viral Icon Siam mall, Tuk Tuk night-rides through the city, cultural landmarks, and even a Muay Thai fight… Bangkok truly is everything she thinks she is!

But my favorite part?
🧵🪡 Designing a capsule collection of suits, sets, and eating my weight in delicious mango sticky rice.🥭🍚🥢😋

It’s no wonder why, Thailand is a top destination for solo travelers, especially women. Bangkok, you were unforgettable! I can’t wait to see you again soon!
