About the artist:

"I am of Maori descent from the tribe Ngati Kahungunu o Te Wairoa, Aotearoa New Zealand,  and of European descent from England, Scotland and Ireland.  

I was raised in New Zealand and for a time in China. It was while I was in China that my love of creating began  in soft stone carving. I carved small intricate things with basic tools, files and small chisels.  At the age of 12 I was inspired by the jade creations of the world and the jade creations of my Maori ancestors. 

That early inspiration has given rise to my life’s passion of jade; sourcing jade, exploring jade, creating in jade  and in other mediums. Sands Carving Studio is the culmination of my passion."
