She graduated with a BA in Visual Communication from Herefordshire College of Arts and practised as a visual designer in the UK, Canada and Ireland before going on to complete an MA in Illustration with the University of Hertfordshire.

She harnesses playful colours and warm textures to deliver simple visual narratives that feel inclusive and friendly yet polished.
