I am a multidisciplinary artist who merges mental health advocacy with my art and writing practice. In 2018, I trained as a peer support worker with the Canadian Mental Health Association, a transformative experience that greatly influenced my future writings about mental health and neurodivergence.

Art is my way of understanding both myself and the world around me. I explore this through multiple mediums and disciplines, each offering its own lens for self-expression and discovery. Across all disciplines, my aim is to create work that feels honest and accessible, offering a space for both self-reflection and communication. I’ve written two books. We Make Clocks, Not Time: My Lived Experience With Psychosis, Creativity, and the Ideas That Have Helped Me and Reconstruction Quest: A Neurodivergent Journey.

Peer support is an important part of my life. From the support I give others to the support I receive from peers. It can be so powerful to make space for other people and give them the chance to develop and strengthen their voice. I strongly believe that the world could benefit from more peer support!
