Jaime Bruce studied Education at the University of Melbourne, before completing courses in early years arts education, painting, and play therapy. Whilst living in London, she worked as a teacher and teaching assistant at a primary school and spent weekends wandering up the canal to Broadway Market. After almost a decade abroad, Jaime moved back to Melbourne and is now often spotted in the park with her toddler, eating a pastry, sipping a coffee, and watching the dogs run by.
