Designing, Interior decoration, Cooking

I established my own business desiging and making clothes with the sole purpose of supporting my foundation that helps poor kids. I designed and tailord the clothes myself and as a result of the quality of work that I delivered and my excellent management skills, this business thrived. In addition, I did decorations for big events like conferences, weddings and receptions.


I enjoy cooking and believe in making authentic and quality food using fresh ingredients.
