Studied general Art & Design at foundation (BTEC ND) level. Went on to study Design Crafts (Embroidery) at HND level, then Fashion Design at Degree level.

Left University and went to work in the Graphic Design industry worked my way up from Junior Designer to Studio Manager within 3 years.

Forced to leave work due to ill health. Now I make jewellery, embroidery, wirework, polymer clay, plastics etc. I've just enrolled on a Silversmithing course at college to fine tune my skills

I am also in the process of building my website. All of this i try to fit in with caring for my terminally ill Mum. As you can imagine its difficult to do as much of my time i want to be there and do as much as i can for her. So everything else is sort of taking a back seat at the moment.

craft interests: crochet, embroidery, fashion, gifts, paper-crafts, quilting, restyle, sewing, jewellery making, felting
