A person who finds meaning in small things.

I live and work in Perth, Western Australia. Born in England, raised in Australia, and have lived in the US, and UK between 2005 and 2021. I have since returnd to Perth. I have a dog named Buffy.

This page is less a portfolio and more a window — things I care about, things that have shaped me, and things that are currently living rent-free in my brain.

04 — The Dog Most important section

Named after
a slayer.
Equally heroic.

Buffy is a Basset Hound of considerable gravity and even more considerable ears. She approaches life with the seriousness it deserves — which is to say, she approaches most things at a gentle trot and then lies down.

Named after the greatest vampire slayer in television history. The resemblance is mostly in the determination.
