Born and raised in the foothills of the Drakensberg Mountains in Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa, I have been blessed with a love of imaginative stories and illustration,

 

I have had my own adventure, with some world travel. Terry the Giraffe was created whilst I was living in Hong Kong, where my passion for inspiring children to "be the best you" was born. 

Terry the Giraffe began as a fun idea and grew into a story that I believe all children should hear. That being different is wonderfully normal and incredibly important. Your difference is another's inspiration. 

​

Returning to beautiful South Africa in 2021, began another adventure, sharing Terry with those at home. 

​

My hope is that you find a friend in Terry, and that his journey inspires your own.
