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. 

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