Born in 1988 and raised in Byron Bay, my practice is grounded in an enduring relationship with the ocean and the sensory landscape of the Northern Rivers.

My background spans culinary training in Melbourne and over a decade in professional kitchens. This experience established a disciplined, process-driven approach, alongside a heightened sensitivity to texture, composition, and material change , qualities that continue to shape my practice.

Working across drawing and painting, I approach materials intuitively, allowing surfaces to accumulate, shift, and reform over time. The ocean remains a constant reference.

Rockpools and coastal ecologies are a recurring focus, intimate, self-contained environments where complexity, fragility, and transformation unfold. I am drawn to their layered, interdependent systems, where light, depth, and organic forms create a sense of both enchantment and ambiguity.

I am interested in how these environments are encountered on a sensory and perceptual level , where surface, movement, and texture evoke intimacy and sensuality.

My work encourages a slower, more sustained mode of looking, an attentiveness through which a deeper awareness of our relationship to the natural world can emerge.
