A graduate of LASALLE College of the Arts, She has worked with many international brands and companies like Jo Malone, Clarins, Sony and SHELL in many of their promotional campaigns.She has also taught more than 100 school workshops in Singapore. Her most memorable experience was her first overseas art demonstration in Tokyo Japan with Collins Debden Singapore.
She looks up to Turkish Ebru Masters like Garip Ay and Kubilay Eralp Dincer as inspirational figures to continue improving and creating more magical moments for her audiences here in Singapore.
"The most interesting thing about water marbling is the movement of the paint. It feels alive when you touch it, almost as if it has a life of its own.
