I  design … make… to grow and (un)become. 

My creative practice is…

I value  authenticity, compassion, creativity, connection and learning. I aim to creatively activate change, drawing on principles of critical creativity, critical pedagogy and “good ancestor” thinking.

Visual art, craftivism, learning design,  digital/ IT design and project management, facilitating learning/unlearning, music, research, poetry and writing are practices that I use to create space and opportunities for dialogue, connection, compassion , positive social action and outcomes. 

My herstory – has been whitewashed over many generations by coloniality – undocumented in history and “official” records.
It is the lived/denied experiences, the stories of my ancestors – told/unsaid/edited and erased but embodied intergenerationally.
I am a perpetual migrant, granted permission by settler/invaders to seek refuge, live and become a citizen on unceded land. 

My creative practice enables me to unlearn and (un)become.

Through my creative practice I commit to developing my cultural capability and “good ancestor” practices and advocating for social justice action within the disciplines  I work in , and communities that I live and create in.
