Centring disabled bodies and celebrating the unique ways we move through the world is what Stump Kitchen is all about. I do this by transforming my stump into playful, intricate cosplay characters, cooking tasty recipes using my stump as a kitchen tool, and sharing my content through social media. I am driven by society's lack of authentic disability representation, hoping to fill that gap with my magical stump characters and delicious one-handed recipes. 

As an educator by trade, I am passionate about speaking with audiences of all ages about the importance of disability representation, accessibility, cooking, and cosplays, and share stories that centre my experience as a disabled, queer creator. My Stump Kitchen work has spoken to many different audiences, places, ages, and my online content is enjoyed by folks globally.
