I served in the Australian Regular Army for 20 years, during which I deployed to the Middle East on three operations, including Afghanistan twice. I retired as a Lieutenant Colonel in 2019 to pursue her passion for the arts.

My work explores how place, memory and experience layer and mesh, and who or what is forgotten after the war. In 2024, upon graduating from RMIT with first-class Honours in Fine Arts, I was awarded the School of Art Social Change Award. In the same year, I won the Australian War Memorial Napier Waller Art Prize for my work Deathmin, which was subsequently featured in the ABC documentary series When the War is Over (2025).

Extensively exhibited around Australia and a finalist in multiple prizes, my work is held by the Australian War Memorial, the Victorian Shrine of Remembrance and the Australian National Veterans Art Museum.

My work continues to contribute to evolving conversations around memory, loss, and the complexities of war commemoration.
