Our protagonist, and the reason the audience leans in. Endlessly curious, she never just watches: she learns with her hands, cracks the salt pot, cooks over the fire, asks the question everyone else was too polite to ask. In Season One she steps away from the feed to find real connection and, through it, finds herself. In Season Two that growth turns outward, from being the reason you come to being the reason the maker lets you in. She carries an engaged travel and lifestyle audience of 25,000+ and 5M+ campaign views.

Editorial photographer whose work has appeared in Variety Brazil, Veja, and the Los Angeles Times. She produces the stills and the second-camera coverage that document the crew and the craft.
