Hello there. Welcome to my little corner of the internet.

I am a proud parent, daughter of regional Australia, writer, performance maker, creative producer and community organiser. I make installations, experiences, presentations, poetry, essays, digital exchanges and performances in all kinds of strange places, including real-life loungerooms, train stations and backyards.

Once upon a time I was a disconnected and very angry high-school dropout & teenage parent who thought the arts was a waste of time and money. Some of that story here.

Tea-drinker, big dreamer and thinker of confusing thoughts.

Currently also employed part-time as a highschool teacher at Peterborough High School on Ngadjuri Country in 2025.
