About

Writer, poet, photographer and wild gardener exploring our relationship with the living world through writing, attention and creative practice.

My work lives where inner landscapes meet the outer world. Through storytelling, image-making, and earth-rooted practices, I explore the interplay of self, imagination, and Nature as a rich tapestry for self-discovery and positive change.

Whether I am capturing the golden hush of evening light, tending to tangled garden beds, or shaping words into something that resonates, my aim is the same: to listen deeply, to wonder and to invite a more connected way of being.

At the heart of my creative practice is a deep attention to the living world and the stories it offers. I work with photography, poetry and essay writing as ways of noticing - of honouring the beauty, complexity, and quiet resilience of Nature.

My wild garden is both my sanctuary and a teacher, a place where I observe, learn and draw inspiration for everything I create. It fuels not only my art but my advocacy - a growing part of my work that speaks to the urgent need to reconnect with and protect the more-than-human world. I’m currently deepening my practice to include visual poetry and more intentional threads of environmental and inner activism.

Alongside my work, I hold space for curious souls as they explore their creative path. Guiding them to cultivate a more reciprocal, imaginative and compassionate way of living within the more-than-human world.

You are very welcome here.

Let’s grow something meaningful together.
