About

Baby boy with lion stuffed animalsAriko is inspired by the Filipino Tagalog phrase, "baby ko", a term of endearment meaning my baby.

It represents the love and bond between a mama and child, something that I am lucky to have experienced when my Ari was born on March 7, 2023.

All of a sudden (and after 9 months and 37 hours of labor), my entire identity shifted to "mama".

I strive to embody the energy that is associated with Ariko in everything that I create, and I hope this collection inspires you to approach life with the same sense of playfulness, love, and kindness.
