I was born in Denpasar, Bali, and I have been blessed with beautiful moments and with being surrounded by loving family and friends.
Ever since I was a child, I have always been attracted to people wearing elegant outfits and accessories. It would make me want to have the same clothes, the same accessories, but our financial situation was tight so instead of buying them, I figured out a way of making them.
"As a teenager I designed and made my own outfits and my friends loved them! In fact, some of them started to purchase my designs. It feels so great to know that others appreciate my designs. Through this craft I can express my freedom through the colors, designs, and fabrics that suit my personality.
"I've never taken any formal design courses, it all began as a hobby and I love to do it for my friends and for myself. I keep updating my designs according to friends' comments, social trends, convenience, and comfort.
"I love to watch the trends in the latest designs and I try to apply my ideas with the latest designs. So from this stage, I gradually learn by watching and doing.
"The challenging part is when I design something new and different to keep it fresh and exciting. Color combinations, comfort, and easy to wear are the nicest elements in my designs.
"My dad is an independent entrepreneur in his field, and he always encouraged me to become an entrepreneur in the field I preferred. I love fashion. One day I hope to have a business of my own. Lucky me, I am born and bred in the rich Balinese culture, and our environment is a never-ending source of inspiration for me."

NOVICA was started with a dream to create a better world for artisans, because a better world for artisans is a better world for all.
Along the way, the founders of NOVICA discovered something very important - as artisans around the world succeeded, there was also a visible and profound impact on the communities around them.
Your purchases are that powerful. They directly and indirectly provide for education, help with health care, fund basic needs, support children, preserve disappearing arts, and of course, spread happiness around the world.
The founders of NOVICA had a vision of the future that is not one of mega factories producing cookie cutter products for all to cheaply consume. Instead, a bright future that celebrates artisans who take the time to create an item by hand. A future where time is protected, where stories are told, where unique details are honored. Love, respect, inclusiveness become driving force.
