"I have an MA Fine Art at the Royal College of Art, London, and in 2010 an MA, (Distinction) in Digital Film & Animation at London Metropolitan University. I am a qualified Adult Education tutor - City & Guilds 7307 Stage 1 (PTTLS) and a City & Guilds 9281 PTTLS in Basic Skills, Literacy and ESOl.
I have taught in art colleges, further and adult education colleges and since 2008 have run technology, iPad and Reminiscence projects with Open Age, an Educational Charity. I created and developed with Timuchin Dindjer A World in a Suitcase an innovative mixed media visual storytelling enterprise whose aim is to inspire people from diverse communities to take a fresh look at their 'Worlds' through sharing stories, art, photography, paper collage & film. Recently our emphasis is on Identity and Belonging. Creating images using visual cues is a way in for people with little English to tell their stories.
