Fourteen years, filed

Hi, I'm Ruby.
This is my corner of the internet.

I make things, climb things, and occasionally sit still long enough for my dad to take a photo. He built the first version. I'm the boss of it now.

The Timeline

A walk through the years. Each one gets a page of its own: a few photographs, and a line about what was going on.

2026

Fourteen, nearly. Two ski Februaries, a Grand Prix in May, London in July, and New York twice.

Thirteen. Volleyball camp in Poland, Warsaw's old town, a Sardinian July, and a birthday at golden hour.

2024

Thirteen. Football most weekends, a stage, a borrowed blazer, and a hammock that held.

2023

Twelve. Sea water, cartwheels in the corridor, and a pink dress on a Sunday.

Things I Make

Paintings, crafts, builds, bakes — anything that started as an idea and ended up as a thing. This room is empty on purpose. It's mine to fill.

Empty plate — 01
Nothing here yet
Empty plate — 02
Reserved for a masterpiece
Empty plate — 03
And another. No pressure
