the medical and scientific fields. Based in Hove, UK, she founded Human Touch Illustration. Her artistic expertise spans traditional pencil drawings, animations, and digital 3D sculpture, primarily focusing on medicine and science. She has won multiple awards for her 3D modelling, visual design, and 2D animation.
After graduating from the University of Brighton with an honours degree in midwifery in 2015, she practiced as a midwife in hospitals, clinics, and the community.
This background provides her with a unique understanding of patient care and communication, along with a passionate interest in medicine and science.
