About the author

I love to create. It is something everyone is called to do in way or another. I can be found hidden behind a camera, sketching or tapping away at my laptop’s keyboard.

I was born in the seaside town of Brighton, England. I am a trained interior architect but have always been a writer and illustrator. My secret life has now made it into printed word. I enjoy writing supernatural fantasy, dytopian tales and even have a few non-fiction books coming out soon too.

I am inspired by images, peoples’ stories, art and nature.

Hopefully, my books will inspire you to ask questions of yourself and discover new places.
