About Me

My early childhood was spent between the suburbs of Sydney and travelling Australia in a caravan. Red dirt, aqua coast lines and endless sunshine encompass my childhood memories, and through all of this I was constantly drawing.

It wasn't until 2020 when I moved to Denmark, a country town in WA, that music became part of my life. I learnt how to play ukulele, guitar, drums and piano and was so taken by this creative outlet.

Art is the way we decorate space, filling places with creative expression. Whereas music is how we decorate time, and I was hooked.

Somehow from having zero ties or family connections to Denmark it became an amazing place to immerse myself in both of these. There is no shortage of inspiration from nature and community.

When I'm not playing music or making art, you'll find me at the beach, spending time with family or friends, doing karate, playing basketball, or studying science and maths.
