About me
I'm an illustrator, designer and aspiring children's book author. I believe in good ideas, hard work and attention to detail. I discovered a love of print making and observing the world around me whilst studying in Leeds, followed by Bristol. I'm excited by the bold colours, shapes, textures and diversity found in the day to day, and look to reflect that in my work. I look for projects to throw myself into and I'm always keen to find new ways of working and communicating.
