Personal Statement
My passion is in creating beautiful and thought provoking work. As well as being talented, creative and ambitious, I also enjoy challenging myself, a motivation present in my work. I have reached the summit of mount Kilimanjaro, sky dived solo from 20,000 feet and run marathons. However my greatest achievement are my children who bring me endless motivation and inspiration.
