  • More details about your skills

    Im now a travelling artist, after recieving a diploma in art and design i've been building independance as a freelance artist alongside travelling- finding inspiration over the world with the power to connect through art! Recently doing murals for hostels, which im looking to explore further.
    I spent some time learning in indonesia in an art residency program (learning traditional and local art and music), plus doing a variety of workshops (batik, then classical painting in Rishikesh), alongside solo projects in different studios in London or my hometown. I create sustainably and would love to try curate workshops, teaching pigment binding, batik or illustration and painting, or collaborating on projects!

    I was an apprentice at an italian restaurant breifly, then continued chef training, including; working as a private chef in France, running kitchens, wedding catering and during the festive season creating a small baking business. As well as extensive kitchen experience, i've worked as a waitress and bartender on the side too. I have my level 3 food and hygiene. Also im learning about ayurveda and am passionate about nutrition, incorporating my knowledge into meals.

    During the summer i work and manage a festival food stall; including building the structure, loading and transporting the equiptment, creatively decorating the exterior and helping transfer it across the country to different sites. Occasionally for fun i do festival volunteering, helping with childcare.

    Im a qualified english teacher, with experience volunteering in Lombok, Indonesia. Teaching a variety of students and assisting in the local girls boarding school. Empowering and connecting to the students was an incredible experience and i got the opportunity to incorporate art classes too and hope to find more opportunities to teach.

    Recently i was a merchandiser and curator for a succesful english band, touring with them to help with sales, collaborating creatively and training up new employees. Plus lightening spirit!

Also in my free time i love photography, surfing, rockclimbing, hiking, yoga, cooking (vegertarian, ayurvedic, organic) meals. Im currently teaching myself more about videography and graphic design.
