Who am I?

I am passionate about deep connection with nature and my mission is to inspire others to do the same.

During a difficult time in 2021, I rekindled a childhood love of animal artwork to sustain my wellbeing. I’ve been developing my art practice ever since, as it ties in so well with my mission.

I have diverse career experiences, from horticulture and landscape design, to emergency services and more recently, a degree in evolutionary biology, with honours in ecology. This path led to my PhD, completed in 2024. My research was a deep-dive into the meaning of human-nature connection and the benefits of strong relationships with nature.

I hope you get joy and inspiration from my work. If you have a favourite animal and would like me to create a portrait - please contact me with any questions.
