I'm fun loving and happy and unafraid.

I have done commissions for advertisements and am continuously building my portfolio in and out of formal training. In New Zealand I have been working in collaboration with media professionals, and alternative artist types in New Zealand, to create art as well as commercial work for clients.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done lots of amazing stuff. I did some cabaret performances with a red scarf (not in drag) and I performed all around Auckland. It was pretty cool.
I made a music video as well based on my cabaret.

(ask me about my other videos and I'll tell you)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you a whole bunch of stuff about the history of gymnastics.
