Graduated at Manchester Metropolitan with a BA in Fashion after which I did some extensive travelling through China and Australia. Returned to do an MA in Authorial Illustration at Falmouth College of Art in Cornwall.

Subsequently worked in London and combined textile printing in my spare time while working for architects in mainly bid preparation and studio management. Held three key positions working at Foster & Partners and Levitt Bernstein.

More recently I have undertaken a course in UX Design. This course has enabled me to combine my skills in creative design with detailed organisation, research and document management.
