Currently working at Disability Arts Cymru as West Wales Field Officer, I have a background in Fine Art, having graduated from Goldsmith's College in 1989. Since then I have worked in publishing - doing DTP and design for Magazines and Advertising, volunteered with The Young Unknowns Gallery, set up an Artists Agency which later morphed into a web and graphic design company, I've been an information officer and access co-ordinator for a Music festival and managed a Leisure Scheme for disabled children and young people. Sometime during all that I lost a hand, moved to Wales, was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome and a connective tissue disorder, bought a house, jumped out of an airplane over Las Vegas, spent 2 weeks living with Monty Roberts in California and took lots and lots of photos.
