From Fashion to PHD
I started tattooing in 2017, after working for many years as a fashion designer and freelance illustrator. In 2022 I earned my PhD at Monash University researching the affective and aesthetic experience in tattoo studios from a feminist perspective.
The Draw of Nature
Drawing and nature have been long time passions of mine. In 2015 I completed my training in botanical illustration and now translate this experience into my floral designs and artwork.
STORIES & ART ON SKIN
Working ink on skin is much more challenging than watercolour on paper, but also much more rewarding. I love meeting people and helping them tell their stories through tattoos.
