My excitement lies within ....
investigating reactions from raw materials, ​
being able to manipulate these into varying forms playing with colour and texture.  
​I merge contrasting finishes together from heavily textured into smooth and refined
 anticipating a juxtaposition between severity and delicacy.
​

This represents the graduation of raw materials through to what the consumer would see,
triggering thoughts and connotations of mining
and the original qualities of the materials before human intervention.
​I build an intimate relationship with the materials I’m using, finding excitement in a new texture in molten silver,
the uncertainty of cuttlefish cast coming out, the possibility of finding innovative ways to use all materials.

Personal Profile
I am a contemporary art jewellery designer and maker. I have a 1st class degree in Glass, Ceramics, Metal and Jewellery from Farnham UCA.
​I completed my initial training at what now is the BAJ in Hatton garden and from there onwards and upwards found my connection with the wonderful world of jewellery. 
I had a semester studying at Moholy-Nagy in Budapest where I did more life learning than jewellery making but went back to my last year at Farnham with a fire burning and an itch to make none stop! 

​I am now based in Barcelona where I moved to join Klimt02, absorbing all things current in art jewellery. Being warmly welcomed into the city and the team I learnt invaluable lessons, however after making half heartedly on my balcony I craved a bench again! I am now revisiting the same fight I have always had with myself where I explore materials I am finding on the streets of Barcelona versus a pull back to the traditions of using silver and metals. I am creating two collections that are some how running alongside each other as I go backwards and forwards between silver and seed pods occasionally daring to mix the two worlds together. Both being a dialogue of my time in this city. ​
