About Me

I believe in the loving power of Metamorphosis where one can discover fresh potential in taking charge of our life stories. 

 

Feelings of anxiety, fear, anger, desire, loneliness and isolation are some of the results of our modern lives. Art in all of its forms can be a powerful entry point to knowing who we are, strengthening our centre, developing healthy boundaries, for processing emotions, reducing anxiety, and increasing feelings of connection. 

​

It’s a privilege to bear witness to how art-making and reflective conversation can help people make meaning, find clarity and reconnection with fresh insights that may inspire the bearing of the human struggle.

​

I see art-making as a bridge to something greater than ourselves, whether that’s a sense of inner peace, connection, or transformation during times of grief and transition.

 

What I hope to offer in my practice, is a space where your story can unfold in its own time, through your own language, whether that’s spoken or unspoken. 

​​​​​

To date, I have worked in Human Resources and Data Reporting within various Corporate Banking roles around London. I moved towards a career change thanks to health crises moving through me, and my mother - having been her carer since I arrived. 

 

After my Masters training, I worked in crisis counselling within school teams, multi-cultural organisations, religious and spiritual groups, community groups, women's groups, and for people with additional needs. The arts processes lend themselves to exploring workplace relational dynamics. 

Since I have been a singing throughout my life, no matter the change of home place and people place, this is an area I am now including as an offering to support healthy child and heart development.
