I’m an illustrator, writer and maker based in Meanjin/ Brisbane. I love creating visual narratives, working with both traditional and digital media. I’d love to talk to you about illustration and creative projects.
I completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts (hons) at QUT and have studied Children’s Literature at Deakin University. I spent several years playing, singing and sharing stories with families as an arts facilitator at the State Library of Queensland and have worked as a child liaison/ cardboard prop make extraordinaire on the set of Allies and Friends, a wonderful show about diversity and inclusion, produced for ABC kids education.
