Howdy! I'm a new graduate of Animation Production who spent a lot of time studying to make sure I was choosing the right creative avenue for myself. I've been helped along the way by so many compassionate and insightful tutors, and now I want to give that back to other young people looking to study the arts. I've previously worked with the 11-16 age group, though I skew slightly more towards advising on portfolio development with an eye for a future in the arts and the industries around it in the UK. I believe this will be most effective for students in GCSE and Sixth Form to help you come to a decision about where you would like to go next, creatively and skills-wise. However, as someone who had a very personal and non-standard path to university, I would be absolutely delighted to talk to anyone and everyone thinking about making a career for themselves in the arts, whether as a freelancer or a more well-trodden path of study!

My tutorials will be 100% focused on you and what you want and need, searching for the path (or paths) that bring you the most creative joy without compromising on skills that can be turned to other industries with great effectiveness. I prefer to see myself as less of a force of arbitration and more of your peer and guide, working with you (and indeed your family, if they would like to be involved) to find creative and fulfilling solutions that will set you up well for whatever you choose to do.
