I graduated from De Montfort University, Leicester in 2008. In the same year I showcased my work at New Designers and was selected as a 'Young Meteor' by Lustre Contemporary Craft Market, Lakeside Arts, Nottingham. It was at this point my jewellery began to emerge.
I exhibit on a regular basis throughout the year in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Last year I exhibited in Paris and appeared on Channel Four with Kirstie Allsop on her show 'Handmade in Britain.
