About

I am a digital artist with a professional background in animation, interactive design, music, and immersive technologies (VR/AR/XR). Over the past six years, my arts practice has developed through a PhD that explores the ethics of representation and embodied engagement with real-life experiences with XR technologies. I have developed digital artworks that have been exhibited internationally and gained recognition at internationally recognised festivals and conferences.
