My work
Crafting a better future for Disabled Artists in Australia. My portfolio spans academic research that centers disabled voices, community arts projects that build connection and joy, and advocacy work that challenges systems to be more inclusive. From co-designing research with disabled artists to facilitating "Chronically Crafty" workshops, each project represents my commitment to making the arts more accessible and equitable—driven by the belief that the best solutions come from the communities most affected.
