Describe your approach to teaching. 

I see my role as a tutor to act as a catalyst… aiming to draw out the unique creative essence of each individual.

What inspires your own work? 

My work is rooted in an emotional, spiritual and physical engagement with the land. Subtleties of material and construction are explored intuitively and meticulously to build particular textual languages.
