About me
I have an interest in radical community engagement and the benefits of bringing people together through creative practice, exploring how the arts can provide an inclusive and accessible experience for all. I thoroughly enjoy working with children, particularly producing events or facilitating workshops in an outdoor context such as at festivals or in outdoor public spaces.
I also have a clear understanding of methods and precautions required to improve environmental sustainability at arts events, acquired through research carried out for my chosen Dissertation topic.
