I am Illustrator and Artist with over five years of experience in sales and customer service. I am skilled in the organisation and production of creative projects, including exhibition and workshop programmes. My work explores contemporary geopolitical issues such as feminism, inequality and the environment through colourful watercolour painting.
Projects
- Cards Against ViolencePostcard illustration for a project raising money for Sistah Space, a Hackney-based charity supporting African and Caribbean heritage survivors of domestic violence who were evicted from their premises by Hackney Council. The money raised from the sale of the postcards will go towards helping them find a new, safe home to continue supporting these women in need of safety.
