My Background
Chinese Jamaican-American fiber artist and GradPath senior at SCAD School of Fashion (BFA & MA in Fibers), born and raised in Miami Beach, Florida. Specializing in surface design, fiber fine art, and soft sculpture, my work blends tactile storytelling with playful, imaginative form.
Through my studio practice and brand, Noodlepudding, I develop soft product collections from concept to production, transforming ideas into vibrant, touchable worlds of character, texture, and narrative.
I have also gained valuable industry experience as an intern with the art team at Perry Ellis International. I work directly with the head of the Art Department and her assistant designers, creating elevated prints on par with market trends and fully indexing them for production. I've created two surface design print collections, including one print that's being put into production for the spring 2027 Callaway Golf Fashion Collection.

An Advocacy Story
Pudding Buddies is a line of soft toys I designed as sensory tools for neurodivergent kids. My innovative business pitch earned first place among over 23,000 applicants in the SE Regional National Foundation for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE) Youth Challenge. With the invaluable support of NFTE and The Hunter Watson Fund, offering me combined awards and grants totaling over $10,000, I successfully completed my first mass production toy run. I am proud to bring these comforting toys to market to reach the children who need them most.
