Moea graduated from Sturt School for Wood in Mittagong, NSW, in 2021 and received an Emerging Artist Award from Craft ACT: Craft + Design Centre.

After a successful corporate career as an Analyst, she found balance in woodworking and fine furniture making, bringing together hand, head and heart.

As an artist and designer maker, her work is driven by a love of craftsmanship and of timber as a material. She explores both organic and geometric shapes in an attempt to create an emotional connection.
