I am an artist and arts and cultural producer living, working, playing and creating on the lands and waterways of the Wollithiga Peoples on Yorta Yorta Country, in Echuca.

I grew up on the Meru and Gunaikurnai country and come from an English, Welsh, and Eastern European settler heritage.

Through immersive attention to river landscapes, I attune to textures, rhythms, and peripheral forms. Embodied observation guides diverse mark-making. My practice explores entanglements of body, mind, and environment, shaped by exchange, illuminating how diverse people experience place, share stories, and co-construct meaning within living landscapes.

I often collaborate with other artists and currently co-facilitate a creative studio, Factory 20A, with artist Kris Tito. Alongside our individual studio spaces, we work collaboratively to develop new initiatives and artworks that connect people and place in intimate ways. Projects include Daggy Dancing and a collective gathering to share food and explore sharing as a creative and cultural practice.

I have studied fine arts at the Victorian College of the Arts, arts administration and education at the University of Melbourne and Creative Art Therapy at MIECAT.
