I am a student at UAL specialising in Illustration and Visual Media. I consider myself to be creative as well as reliable and enjoy working within a team. I have both practical and digital communication skills, from print making through to
animation as well as experience of specialist software.
After training as a painter, it felt like natural progression to expand my skill-set. I find inspiration everywhere, from classical literature to disposable pop culture. I continue my creative passion in my spare time by hand customising vintage clothing, cooking and visiting galleries and museums.
