As a specialist in art and design education, I am passionate about creativity and academic success for learners with varied needs. With over ten years of experience in the fashion and cultural sectors, I have earned graduate degrees in Art, Design, and Education. With keen insight, knowledge, and experience, I bring value to any organisation. Among my areas of interest are participatory arts, visual culture, and curriculum design. An advocate for inclusivity, I am socially and community-oriented, sustainably-minded and interdisciplinary in approach.
