Illustrating is like composing a classic Italian dish – it takes a dash of love, a whole lot of lyrical hand gestures, and is best enjoyed with others!

As a children’s book illustrator, I relish the art of narrative storytelling. Magic happens when I sit with a manuscript for the very first time. I get excited about quirky characters and opportunities to teleport the reader to new and passed worlds full of life and vibrancy. And I am endlessly inspired by my creative peers and the ever-flowing traditional publishing landscape.

I am also an enthusiastic member of SCBWI Queensland, Cardboard Box Illustrators and Writelinks, and I am here to build connections and contribute to this inspiring community. It is time to blend pigments and pixels.

I acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land where I work and live. I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging. I celebrate the stories, culture and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders of all communities who also work and live on this land.
