Things I love about Life.

Extreme sports, when i'm not teaching at LA Academy I love Snowboarding and Paragliding. My aim this year is to complete my first Parachute jump.

Music - I love live music and when I'm working generally have to have a beat to work to.

Creating - whether it's on a canvas, creating wigs for a shoot, styling or makeup I love the creation process involved.

Photography - I love the medium of photography especially film and polaroid , I'm always attached to my Diana F+.
