My community

The community I serve are those who are inspired to use web3 to create a better world*. I CoCreate with people who are living examined lives; people who are interested in fun, in deep connection, in doing meaningful work together. I hope we can live more truly and more happily together.

*What I mean by ‘a better world’?
More people able to get more of their needs met, more of the time; and as a result able to live more in harmony with themselves and others, creating and living happy and fulfilled lives.

Background

I started my career founding a community theatre company, and ended up specialising in interactive theatre with people living with Dementia. I became frustrated by the limited resources and potential for change in community art, and moved into the social care sector, founded two organisations at the intersection of care and creativity.
Now I've fallen down the NFT rabbit hole and found the sweet spot of art, social change and resources.

Artist Statement

I aim to be a Philosopher Builder; creating experiences to help us live truly and happily:    
That are playful, open, curious, connected.
That nourish us and those we share this life with.
That build our mental wealth.
That are as concerned with the process and the experience as the outcome.
That are experimental, knowing that there is always something to be learned.
That are beautiful.
That create the conditions for joy and love and laughter.
