Our Story

Hi there!

Although KOGDI is currently run, nurtured, and grown by just me, this is our story.

I’ve been crafting, drawing, crocheting, sewing, and exploring all kinds of artistic adventures 
since I was young. None of it would have been possible without the incredible support of my family, friends, 
and—above all—my parents. I’m deeply lucky to have such kind, encouraging people in my life 
who’ve helped me through difficult times and cheered me on every step of the way.

I know the world can be harsh, and some days are harder than others. That’s why I believe in the power of connection—whether through friendship, creativity, or a comforting companion. My goal is to bring more smiles into the world through the things I make: soft friends, cozy gifts, and little sparks of joy.

Whether you buy something from KOGDI, send a kind message, say “hi” at a show, or share us with a friend
—I appreciate you.

Thank you for helping me turn art into comfort, and comfort into connection. I hope you’ll join me on this magical adventure.

Without all of the support from those around me, I don’t know that I would have had the courage to take the leap into the creative fields that make me so happy today! Thank you guys!

Some of my first clay creations!

I still love making miniature food to this day!
