I am a children’s entertainer, puppeteer and educator with popular puppetry arts company Larrikin Puppets, a South-East Queensland based performing arts business that performs puppetry for stage and screen. My husband Brett Hansen and I perform and tour together across Queensland, interstate and internationally.

I am a HASS communicator for kids (Humanities & Social Sciences) and thoroughly enjoy educating and entertaining in that space. It’s definitely my passion right now!

For our colourful and exciting puppet shows, I perform popular lead characters Flossy, Marina and Yellow Beard as well as other background characters – and also appear as a human host.

I received puppetry training at The Puppet Kitchen in Manhattan, New York under Michael Schupbach (Sesame Street, The Jim Henson Company) and on the job under the tutelage of Brett.

I really ought to do a show reel of my puppetry for stage and screen, but who’s got the time?
