I was born on Thursday Island and grew up there but I also grew up on Dauan Island where I spent most of my childhood. This was my mother’s side of the family. My family lives on Dauan now. My beads and colours are based on my bloodline. My jewellery was in the CIAF exhibition in 2019 in Cairns and I’m so excited to see the outcomes. I would love to develop my skills more & keep growing as an artist and jeweller.
