About me

    It started with drawing, as a shy kid. This blossomed into a lifelong love of storytelling across nearly all art forms. By eighteen, I was working as a portrait artist on the streets of London. That same year I was accepted into Central Saint Martin's School of Art and Design (UK), and went on to get a BA in Interdisciplinary Arts from NYU's Gallatin School of Individualized Study, where I studied Acting, Literature, Creative Writing, Fine Arts, Art Therapy, and Psychology. I have worked as a graphic designer, actor, musician (singer-songwriter), novelist, journalist, painter, and teacher, and lived on three continents, before settling in a small mountain village in Toscana, Italia, with my dog and cat.
