Community and wellbeing sit at the heart of my practice. I’m drawn to the ways creativity can bring people together, create moments of connection, and offer spaces where individuals feel seen and supported. Creativity is a gentle way of nurturing belonging — collaborative, responsive, and rooted in care.
