ABOUT

A graduate of Textile Design at Birmingham City University with an interest in materials, colour and trend forecasting. Research plays a big role in all my projects, in developing strong concepts and statements. Recently, I have found the importance of travelling as a way to broaden my knowledge of other cultures, gain design inspiration and to see where trends originate from and how they inform the Western world.

All photos on this site are my own unless stated otherwise.
