Born & raised in Bulgaria, I owe my life in the States to a series of fortunate events. I take nothing for granted.

My studies led me from languages and literature to design, where practical necessities overrule and contain my proclivities towards poetic and visual excess. I have a gratuitous Master’s in Comparative Literature and speak 8 languages — the realm of the foreign is familiar to me. My adult life has been about making bridges, crossing barriers and making foreign things familiar, near and ownable. Design is about capturing the imagination, but in a practical way. Abstract concepts receive direct and swift expression. A challenge I adore.
