I am regularly asked to judge quilt shows within New Zealand.
I completed the quilt judging skills seminar by Jeannie M. Spears in 2007. I have an Advanced diploma and Graduate diploma in Visual art and a Certificate in Maori art specialising in raranga (flax weaving).

I live in Wellington, New Zealand and I teach a range of quilting and surface design classes for groups, quilt shops and for Toi Whakaari, the National Drama School. My classes include machine quilting, sashiko and boro stitching, fabric dyeing, painting and printing, improvisational piecing and bojagi (Korean inspired piecing).
