I hail from the Island of Fiji in the South Pacific. Being an artist comes naturally to me since I was a child but after finishing my high school I studied graphics, fine art, pottery, masi (traditional Fijian cloth), wood carving in traditional Fijian way. I worked in the graphic industry for few years and went back to study 3D animation. I worked on a 3D movie made by Modern Cartoons which is a California based company that travelled to Fiji to make this movie called (Elf Bowling, the great North Pole Elf strike). Then I worked for a t.v commercial making company. Later worked as a promotions officer for a shoe company which owned a shoes factory and more than 10 shoe boutique shops in Fiji, Australia and New Zealand. I have painted two paintings for Dina Lohan who is a celebrity from celebrity big brother and her son Dakota Lohan (mother and brother of celebrity Linsey Lohan).
 
I have also studied hair dressing, commercial cookery and bible collage in Australia. My art inspiration comes from the nature, from my life when I was abused and homeless and also from the bible to encourage, to bring piece of happiness in someone else’s life and to tell a story of what happen to me in life. I use acrylic and oil base paint on canvas or canvas board.I also write poems which I hope it would be turned into music someday. My life is a story of hope.
