Illustrator and journalist passionate about storytelling and cultural representation.
What I'm looking for
I am a proud Balanggarra and Yolngu woman, recognized for my vibrant illustrations and impactful brand collaborations. My journey began in journalism, where I honed my skills with esteemed organizations like The ABC, Vogue, and 10 News. My work is deeply rooted in my cultural heritage, blending pop-culture with a contemporary Aboriginal perspective.
As a Communication Officer and Digital Storyteller at Seed Mob, I created engaging content that resonates with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, particularly in the climate justice movement. My debut book, illustrated in collaboration with 'Deadly Science' founder Corey Tutt, was shortlisted for the Children’s Book of the Year Award, showcasing my commitment to representation and storytelling.
Throughout my career, I have embraced various roles, from digital reporting to mentoring young artists. My experiences have equipped me with a unique skill set that combines creativity with a passion for social justice, allowing me to engage audiences and foster meaningful conversations.
