What do you do?

I help academics, researchers and non-profits turn research into powerful visual stories that create impact and social change.

Why?

I love combining research with illustration and animation to create humanising narratives that amplify marginalised voices. I also work frequently with academics in Health Communications, co-creating sensitive and effective educational resources for both practitioners and the communities they serve. My practice is collaborative and guided by the principles of intersectional feminism. My favourite projects target empathy and the places where it’s absent, asking questions about social legitimacy, barriers to access (both physically and socially) and the psychic and material impacts of exclusion.
