My career goal and research interests revolve around the exploration of innovative and trend-forwarding approaches to link physical art form and fashion to the world of technology that seamlessly integrate with fashion aesthetics, while prioritizing user comfort, functionality, and sustainability.

My master's thesis focused on the integration of wearable technologies within the realm of fashion, specifically exploring accessory-based wearables and the dynamic relationship between fashion and technology. Through my research, I gained a deep understanding of the design principles, technological advancements, and user experiences associated with this emerging field.

Moreover, during my master's studies, I actively engaged with various 3D software tools such as Unity, Marvelous Designer, and Clo3D which allowed me to delve into the realm of virtual and augmented reality through combining fashion design with immersive technologies in order to enhance the possibilities of fashion through virtual environments.

I have always been deeply passionate about art and expressing my creativity through various mediums. From a young age, I found joy in playing musical instruments and exploring different forms of artistic expression. My musical journey began when I was just four years old, starting with the flute. As I grew older, my interest expanded, and at the age of eleven, I embarked on learning the violin. Participating in various contests and performances allowed me to further develop my skills and share my love for music with others. As I continued to explore my musical abilities, I recognized the value of expanding my knowledge and repertoire. At the age of twenty, I took up the piano, eager to broaden my understanding of music and embrace new challenges.

In addition to my musical pursuits, I also discovered a passion for videography and video editing. Motivated by a desire to share my artistic endeavors with a broader audience, I taught myself how to edit videos using Adobe Premiere Pro. This newfound skill allowed me to create captivating content that I shared across different platforms, including Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok.
