Based in Nottingham, I am an experienced textile professional with over 20 years in the industry. I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Textiles at Nottingham Trent University. This opportunity allows me to push my creative boundaries and explore new directions in my work. As a mature student, my work has a powerful platform for storytelling and self-expression. This journey is not just about learning new techniques, it's about growing as a designer and deepening my understanding of the emotional and cultural narratives that textiles can carry. I bring together technical precision and artistic vision, drawing on my extensive experience in embroidery digitizing. I work primarily with Wilcom software and have a strong eye for detail, allowing me to transform complex ideas into refined and impactful embroidered designs. My practice is rooted in both tradition and innovation, blending hands-on skills with digital tools to produce thoughtful, expressive textile pieces.
