I like weaving playful stories and expressive illustrations for young readers. My creative journey is shaped by much-loved series such as Hannibal the Hamster, the whacky rhymes of Dr Seuss, and the enchanting adventures of The Magic Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton. These joyous yabbady-dabbady-doo worlds of fun continue to inspire my imagination and storytelling style.

When I’m not busy bringing stories to life, I enjoy getting dusty and gritty with carpentry, capturing moments through photography, and sharing laughs with friends and family. My favourite crazy-fun character films for putting my feet up to are The Secret Life of Pets and Wreck-It Ralph, Robots and Ice Age. Whether I’m sketching new characters or exploring creative wood-making, I strive to inspire children to dream big and embrace their own adventures.
