Happy to share that I’ve been shortlisted for the 2026 Textile Exchange photography contest, in partnership with Atmos .

Cashmere, traced back to where it begins.
In June 2026, I traveled with PIACENZA 1733 , an Italian mill working natural fibers for nearly 400 years, to Alashan on the edge of Inner Mongolia’s Gobi Desert, and to the Tibetan Plateau, above 4,000 meters.
It was an incredible and truly beautiful life experience and I’m so grateful ♥️
