Background

About Jade B.

I am a creative born and raised in lutruwita (Tasmania). Based in Narrm (Melbourne) on Wurundjeri Country, I am passionate about creativity as an essential platform for self-expression. With experience in design, project management, school engagement, and mentoring young people, I am constantly exploring ways to create opportunities for expression, connection and empowerment. Working in the not-for-profit sector, I have focused on building community-centred partnerships and coordinating free programs to empower young people. With eight years of fashion and textile design-related study, I have worked as a commercial textile designer, leading Work Integrated Learning programs to support emerging textile designers to gain industry experience and explore their creative potential.
