I studied Glass and Ceramics at The National Glass Centre in Sunderland. I specialised in producing high-end glass sculptures which can be seen on my website here:

I have exhibited my works in The British Glass Biennale in Stourbridge, Shipley Art Gallery in Gateshead, Enchanted Parks Sculptural Trail in Gateshead, Doddington Hall Sculpture in Lincoln, and Bullseye Emerge in Oregon USA.
After graduating with a First in 2018, I returned to Lincolnshire and set up a studio. I have spent my life savings sympathetically restoring an outbuilding at my grans. This includes reroofing it, reusing the traditional ceramic pan tiles, fitting new windows and installing raised flooring. I have aquired both glass and ceramic tools and modified specialised equipment. I did a lot of the work myself including using lime mortar to retain the characteristics of the building.
I use the same techniques in my handcrafted gifts and sell at approx 5 craft fairs per year. I may also decide to hold workshops in my studio in the near future.
