I’m an award winning contemporary Artist born on Wiradjuri land in Coonabarabran, NSW, Australia.

Over my 20 year career as a professional creative I have produced award winning work, gaining both inspiration and notoriety while living and creating in New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Sydney, London and Paris.

I currently reside in Yuin Country on the South Coast of NSW, Australia.
