At sixteen I was diagnosed with ME and the drastic changes the illness made to both my life and my capabilities has massively impacted the kind of person I have become today. Four years later, I am determined, driven and stubborn – I also appreciate every bit of happiness that comes my way to the fullest. I live my life in a small flat located at the tippity-top of an old, sandstone Victorian building. It’s here with my partner Stuart and my pets that the story of my life unfurls, documented in detail through photography and words.
