About me
We live in an image-obsessed world and I want to be the one dictating the mould others aspire to fit into. I want to be able to enhance the human form. My mission: the new and extraordinary. I am a conceptual artist that uses communication to push boundaries and provoke a wide range of interpretations. Organisation and devotion to detail is key in everything I do. I have a positive attitude and a great understanding of professionalism in the work place, as well as a willingness to build and learn new skills.
