Environmental and social responsibility is a fundamental aspect of my personal and professional life, drawing me to projects that prioritise sustainability and social awareness. Involvement in (sub)cultural projects is another key aspect of my work. I see these initiatives as spaces for self-expression, providing a counterbalance and platform for alternative perspectives.
