About Me
After graduating from Uni with a degree in Costume Design and Construction, I immersed myself in the theatre and film industry. My journey led me to China, where I had the privilege of working on some incredible costumes for Cirque du Soleil's sister show, The House of Dancing Water. This incredible experience allowed me to travel Asia on my weekends - something I take huge inspiration from in my artwork!
Fate took an unexpected turn when I found myself confined to my flat in China during lockdown. It was during this period of introspection that I reignited my passion for drawing and discovered a newfound love for digital art…thus, Fizz and Flourish was born!

I returned to Edinburgh mid lockdown, hit record on my camera, and the rest is history! Little did I know, this decision would shape my illustration business. Through my vlogs, I shared the evolution of Fizz and Flourish, from its humble beginnings to my first Etsy orders and the launch of my own website, Patreon and more!
Today, I find myself with a growing audience on YouTube, where I’ve had the opportunity to engage in exciting brand collaborations, all whilst being supported by an amazing community over on Patreon. If you’d have told me that back in 2020, I wouldn’t have believed you!
I’m also very lucky to be a mum to Freddie, Otis and Arnold. In 2021 I introduced Freddie to the world, and two years later his twin brothers came along. Many mums reach out to me, sharing their struggle of juggling it all - so if you’re a mum running a small business, you’re not alone…I see you!
