As a kid I was extremely shy & sensitive but from a very young age I knew I loved making things. Drawing, painting, anything creative.
Art was where I felt most like myself.
I started modelling at 14 and it quickly became my whole world. After finishing school, I threw myself in fully and naively.
Over the next decade I travelled and worked across the major fashion capitals of the world...
By 25, I was living in London, and completely burnt out.
On the outside, everything was glamorous and successful. But inside, I felt lost, exhausted and disconnected from what really mattered.
Years spent chasing external validation left me feeling completely disconnected on the inside.
I had no idea who I really was or what I cared about
My turning point came through my discover of plant and herbal medicines.
I had a profound experience with ceremonial cacao that felt like coming home to my body for the first time in years.
It ignited a deep urge to learn more about the plants, their histories, uses, and traditions.
For three months I traveled through Central & South America.
Little by little, as I Immersed myself in Nature, ritual and ancient traditions, my true self began to emerge.
This experience taught me what true beauty really is.
Back in London, I began studying herbal medicine and searched desperately for the same sense of connection to land & culture I’d felt while traveling.
But I couldn’t find it...
So I created The Cacao Club.
A space for ceremony, embodiment, and reconnection. A combination of cacao, herbal medicine, and ritual.
What started as something I deeply needed became something I could share.
A way home for myself, and for others.
The process of building a business from the ground up also reminded me that my true passion has always been to CREATE.
As I’ve continued to deepen into spiritual practices, I’ve found my connection to the rituals & traditions that were missing from my life.
Practices rooted in beauty, reverence, and a connection to something sacred.
I started to create art that honours what I’ve learnt and who I’m becoming.
Just like The Cacao Club, its what I need.
To be inspired by the goodness and beauty that exists on this planet and in the hearts of human beings.
To look at paintings that act as visual portals back to peace.
Art that reminds us of our true nature and that inspires us to live a life that exudes kindness, love & compassion.
Whether it be an original painting or print for your altar or bedside, I hope these pieces bring you home to your heart and remind you of the beauty and preciousness of this life.
