About Me
I am a bachelor student of Arts and Culture at Maastricht University, Netherlands. Originally I come from South Africa, but I have also lived in England, Egypt and now the Netherlands.
​
Creating is my passion, whether that be through the ink on a page or the lens of a camera. To tell stories is all my soul desires, and so through this website, that's what I aim to share with you.
​
As I travel and grow, the colours of life, the flavours of each season, the brushstrokes of emotion that slip and slide across the canvas of my heart, it all bursts out here - through my expressions.
