At a very young age, I began a life-long love affair with the medium of comic books - Initially drawn in by the bright colours and bombastic action or over-the-top slapstick, I soon began to appreciate how the artwork and the relationship between panels could convey mood, pacing, and character, and how I could tell my own stories. 

I studied art at College and continued to draw and create comics for my own enjoyment but never really entertained the idea of a creative career, until a few years ago when a friend convinced me to put on an exhibition of my work. From there came commissions, prints, starting my own online T-shirt store, and learning how to develop my skills in digital media.

​Over the last year I have participated in an Aardman Academy Storyboarding course, and have submitted a test script for Aardman's story department. Armed with positive feedback and encouragement from the pros, I feel ready to take on the challenge of progressing my creative passion into a professional one!
