i operate an independent studio in santa barbara, california.

my work exists at the intersection of scent materiality and digital geometry. i do not view fragrance as a luxury commodity, but as a structural element—a tool i use to define the atmosphere and logic of a physical space.

every scent is a study. every object is an output.

Empty candle jars with wicks.

my process is rooted in technical precision. by stripping away the ornamental, i focus on the raw essence of the materials—balsam, oak, leather, and smoke.

each batch is developed, poured, and made in my santa barbara space. i prioritize the honesty of the ingredients and the geometry of the final form. this is my pursuit of a warmer brutalism.

thank you for being here.
