Creativity isn't reserved for any one group. Everyone can be an artist, and creativity comes in many forms.

Building equal, supportive, and joyful relationships is the foundation of meaningful youth work.

Children and young people live diverse and complex lives, and I aim for my work to reflect and adapt to the needs of the people I’m working with.

The voices, opinions and experiences of young people should be considered.

The experience of being creative and what we learn in the process matters more than the final result; it’s not about creating a perfect piece of art.

Our ability to look inwards shapes how we move outside in the world. I try to understand who I am, and how my experiences, beliefs and assumptions show up in spaces I create.
