About me

The extraordinary everyday. My work is nostalgic and optimistic, I try to the capture beauty in things we don’t usually see. Most of the time you’ll find me in markets, forests, small towns and museums or sitting on a curb drawing. 

Graduating with a Bachelor of Design Honours, from York University in Canada, I made my way to London in 2007. Living in Hackney since, I've worked in everything from Design and Advertising to Branding, with a focus on creative direction/strategy, type and illustration.

I work primarily in crayon and paint stick, sometimes digitally. I work in full bold colour, usually with a bit of nature always near in my drawings. You'll find me out and about doing lots of cycling and rambling but also travelling lots.
