I’ve been fascinated through my work as an architect by what connects people with place and what it takes to reconnect people back emotionally with their environment. My curiosity lead me, over the last decade, to spend time in intentional communities around the world and with indigenous tribes in the rainforest of Ecuador and the Sierra Nevada mountains in Colombia where I learned more about the innate connections with living systems.

More recently I moved to the Beara peninsula in Ireland where, through daily observation, sea swimming and painting I am learning more about our ancient wild landscape. Through daily painting I aspire to evoke connections, with our land; with nature and some of the preciousness that is to be gleaned from simply BE-ing and observing in nature.

The focus in my training as a Movement Medicine teacher brought me into connection with the powerful creative energy that is tapped when we combine conscious dance and creative practice. I hold online ‘Creative nest’ classes: simple spaces to explore your own creative practice, bookended with conscious dance. Through my classes I create a container for creativity – in a time where it can be a profound resource for our well-being and for maintaining a powerful vision of what is possible.

My invitation throughout my work is to connect with the truth of who you are, with your sense of interconnectedness with others and with your communities, and with the wild creative aliveness of the natural world.

My creativity is dedicated to the honouring of life in our world.
