I have always been creative and studied Fine Art (Painting) at degree level. It was while I was studying that I discovered a love of geometric forms, clean lines and colour.

I continued to paint and exhibit my work after leaving university, then left the UK to travel. I have travelled extensively in India and Southeast Asia and it was in India where I began my jewellery making journey. I studied with a jeweller in Rajasthan over several years and continued to expand my knowledge and skills on my return to the UK, attending guided space sessions with Master Goldsmith Sonia Cheadle. 

The discoveries I made as a painter continue to inspire my jewellery designs. I like to challenge myself when making pieces and enjoy incorporating other materials where I can. My love of colour informs my current designs and I like to use discarded objects and make them into wearable art. I work predominantly with recycled sterling silver and aluminium, both hand dyed and recycled.  

I currently work from my studio in Making Space, Havant, Hampshire
