Karla’s background is in graphic design and illustration. Hailing from Taranaki, she has worked in the creative industry for more than 10 years. A former student and graduate of The Learning Connexion, Karla moved to Wellington for a change of scenery and to explore the fine art side of her creativity. As a student she felt she had found a place where there was the freedom to explore, make mistakes and learn, not just from tutors, but fellow students.

“I feel privileged to be part of our students creativity journey”.

On completing her Honours Diploma Karla become part of The Learning Connexion team as an on-site Certificate tutor and distance delivery mentor. Her own work explores a wide range of media, but oils are her preferred medium.
