Description
I am a passionate and creative individual with a deep love for music, fashion, and the arts. When I’m not
immersed in my professional pursuits, you’ll find me at Pirate Studio’s, DJing and curating mixes that
resonate with my own musical tastes. My spare time is also dedicated to my strong passion for creating
art. I am eager to find a role where I can contribute my skills and enthusiasm to make a meaningful impact
in these industries.
