CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

i live and work in the museum world or art and history. i love textiles and weave my own artwork. I think about running more than i do it, but i go to the gym and someone once told me 'its the thought that counts'. I love gardening, but really it just an excuse to get muddy. I've been told i have the look of a vegetarian. I also do roller derby, a consuming activity.

PHILOSOPHY

we do what we do because we are who we are.
