My master's has helped me discover a passion for participatory methods and involving people to create with, for, and by them.
Helping make the path into the creative industries more visible for young people is important to me. This is why I'm volunteering as an Animation Maker at the Young V&A, where I'm collaborating with staff and fellow volunteers to develop activities that demystify the animation process for young audiences. This work is being completed as part of the Inside Aardman: Wallace & Gromit and Friends exhibition.
