As a facilitator, she is gentle and provoking, combining a BA Applied Theatre (Griffith University, 2012) with years of experience as a distraction therapist, interactive theatre-maker, and teacher to deliver arts based workshops that centre a collaborative and empowering process for all participants.
As a designer and maker she has worked across theatre, festivals and film in Australia, China and the UK. Her designs in costume, puppetry and art range from delicate to grotesque, are completely original and 100% captivating.
