A little about me...

Cultural heritage professional with over 20 years' experience across galleries, libraries, archives and museums (the GLAM sector), specialising in exhibitions, collection engagement, preservation, digitisation and public programming throughout Queensland.

Experienced in exhibition production, project coordination, collection interpretation and delivering engaging visitor experiences that connect audiences with Queensland history, culture and identity. Recognised for strong conceptual and visual communication skills, collaborative project delivery, creative problem solving and a thoughtful, audience-focused approach to cultural storytelling.

Currently employed within the Exhibitions team at the State Library of Queensland and developing an independent creative practice through PaperBark Picture Framing and Photography.

My qualifications include a Certificate in Picture Framing, a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Honours), and a Master of Arts (Research), with studies spanning Dance, Photography and Art History. Together, these disciplines continue to inform my approach to framing, visual storytelling, and the care and presentation of artworks and treasured objects.
