My working life began on the streets of Johannesburg, where I trained and worked as a paramedic in 1991.
For two years, I encountered people during some of the most difficult and vulnerable moments of their lives. Eventually, I experienced burnout myself.
A move to Grahamstown brought a different chapter, teaching first aid at St John Ambulance.
Then, in 1996, I made another significant change. I decided I could no longer work for a boss and began making kaleidoscopes full-time with my partner at the time.
From emergency medicine to teaching, and then into a world of mirrors, light, colour and extraordinary geometric patterns. Not exactly a conventional career path!
But what followed became a lifelong exploration of the human experience.
Over the years, my work expanded through colour therapy, Kaleidoscopic Light Therapy, intuitive healing, art and the development of my own approaches to understanding how we experience ourselves and the world.
Today, I’m a healer, artist, author and explorer of light and perception. But those titles tell only part of the story.
What continues to fascinate me is being human: what we carry, what shapes us, what we recognise in ourselves and what becomes possible when something changes.
And after all these years, I’m still curious.
