I am a designer, maker, and silversmith based in Bordon, Hampshire. Surrounded by history, nature, and beauty in every direction inspires me all the time. I take my sketchbook and phone on my adventures ready to capture the new ideas for a design. You never know where the inspiration will come from, could be a tile on a floor or a piece of lace in a scrap box. 

My work is unique handcrafted pieces celebrating traditional methods of making in a contemporary way. Combining my love to the handmade and natural forms. Many of my work incorporates floral organic features with the golden mean, a natural pattern formation that is in so much of our natural world. Lots of architecture, such as churches and historical buildings. 

I believe in celebrating the real craftsmanship of silversmithing and jewellery making, the skill of the maker’s hand to its best. My favourite technique is called piercing. This involves using a fine saw blade to cut the metal. One slip and the design could go wrong. I remember being taught this in my work experience and having the opportunity to work on an incense burner for a church. I had to cut the holes for the design at the same forty-five-degree angle. It was like a magical trance of concentration, I had fallen in love with the process.
