My work is driven by composing narratives to tell a story through each of my pieces. From the characters I create or the knit pattern of a shirt, there’s a focus on themes of home, belonging and girlhood. I have a strong interest in venturing into different concepts and art styles. With my expertise in digital illustration and graphic design, I hope to help bring your worlds to life!
