Describe your work in one sentence:

Playing with materials to tell a story.

Why do you do it?

Making is an integral part of who I am.

What keeps you going (what’s your GRIT)?

Hopeful story telling, specifically ideas on environmental issues and mental health. Sparking joy and finding connection.

What advice would you give to somebody wanting to become a ‘creative’?

Follow your instincts and don’t be fixed on the result.  The process is where the magic happens.

Tell us something unusual about yourself.

In 2024 on Friday the 10th of May I saw the Northern lights in my garden, at home in Northwest England! Such an unusual event.  Despite all the places life could have taken me, it gave me a profound sense that I was exactly where I need to be.
