About

About me

 

I’m a visual storyteller working across illustration, animation and interdisciplinary art. Whether I’m illustrating a children’s book, directing a short film or developing my own story concepts, I aim to create work that is thoughtful, sensory and quietly subversive.


With a background in narrative animation, visual communication and graphic arts, I specialise in giving shape to ideas through drawing, design and writing. My education in image and graphic form laid the foundation for a practice that moves fluidly between media, combining strong imagery with conceptual clarity.


I also lead animation workshops for children and adults and have contributed to various projects in roles ranging from animation, illustration and image editing to layout and visual design.


Let’s get in touch if you have a project in mind.
