She opened her aromatic studio in Los Angeles in 2004, and has been teaching classes around scent practices since 2006. While her expertise is in perfumery and incense that make use of natural and rare materials, she simultaneously supports an arts practice, focusing her efforts in painting and craft. With personal shifting priorities and existing in complex times, sharing a different aspect of her work and offering experiential encounters feels intimately important and relevant.LOCATIONLocation: We are located in Los Angeles’ historic Chinatown neighborhood, on a pedestrian street that also hosts galleries, souvenir shops, production companies, design studios, and two very cool parrots.
