Her purpose has been to explore and improve educational interventions in a range of cultural and cross-disciplinary arts environments. She is known for her innovative experiments in practice and the building of new theoretical perspectives. She aims to generate high quality educational provision that is rooted in research, and is committed to positive, long-term change that is profound, sustainable and inclusive.
