ABOUT ME
ARTIST. EDUCATOR. STORYTELLER.
I combine traditional training with imagination to create characters, worlds and stories that connect.
MY JOURNEY
I grew up around the theatre. My parents were performers and took me to work where I watched actors transform on stage.
​
​
Observing how they expressed the full spectrum of human emotion left a lasting impression on me.
That early exposure to storytelling continues to inspire my work today - whether I'm painting a portrait, designing a character or building a world.
