I completed my studies in Contemporary Crafts at Bucks New University in 2016, specialising in Ceramics & Glass. Upon graduation, my colourful Pick n’ Mix Prosecco glasses and interest in colour won me a nod from the Contemporary Glass Societies Graduate Review. I found Craft to be a perfect marriage of my interests in art and design, and in 2019 I was shortlisted for the Cræftiga International prize.

I am driven by the need to channel my passion into creativity and craft, the discovery in the making process, and the use of my hands. My work is heavily influenced by my surroundings in the Chilterns, along with its associated local history, as well as my travels through North/South America and Europe. With a passion for process, my work is made using a variety of techniques and ceramic materials. Initially creating functional work, I am now moving in a more sculptural direction.

My interests within the field not only stop at designing and making, but into technical assistance, promotion, selling and exhibiting, as well as assisting other artists in their Studios. I have worked for several respected organisations as well as internationally collected artists. I am currently a Senior Art Technician in the Independent school sector, where I enjoy passing my skills and expertise on to the next generation.
