Kia Ora e te whānau!

I’m a freelance illustrator based in Morningside, Tāmaki Makaurau.

All types of illustration are my jam, but illustrating for picture books and graphic novels comes in at 1st place. In early 2025 I finished my Masters of Creative Practice at Unitec, where I wrote and illustrated a HUGE graphic novel and a less huge picture book. When I was 9 I wrote and illustrated a eco-activist comic called ‘Sam the Super Worm’ and luckily, not much has changed.

I fill the rest of my time with mahi at Objectspace gallery in Grey Lynn where I wear many hats - Design and Comms Assistant, Gallery assistant, Junior Technician, and Archivist.

You can see some of my mahi here.

Wanna know some more?

My husband Ky and I live in a flat with our well-fed cat Squash. Ky is a super cool furniture designer - @built_by_ky - naturally we spend our days dreaming of colours and textures

When I’m not making, I’m wandering around my family’s paddocks with my nephews Alfie and Gus, hunting for bears who stole our hats or running from Elton John (the name of Alf’s imaginary pet dragon).

I love collecting picture books (thank you Unity books). You should see my picture book collection.

Seriously, it’s unhealthy.
