I create statement pieces of wearable art jewellery.

My work is colourful, sculptural and experimental, made using mixed materials including eco-silver, copper, brass, leather, gemstones and Jesmonite. I enjoy exploring a wide range of processes such as casting, etching, patination, mark-making and enamelling, allowing each piece to develop its own character and story.

My fascination with jewellery began in childhood during visits to Norwich Castle Museum, where the collection of ancient Egyptian jewellery captured my imagination. Since then I have continually created experimental pieces and curated small collections that explore form, texture and narrative.

I studied Theatre Design at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in London, and the influence of theatre and storytelling continues to shape my practice. Alongside my jewellery work, I have spent many years working as a community and environmental artist. Over time I have developed my jewellery-making skills through classes and training in Norwich, Shrewsbury and Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter.

Much of my inspiration comes from museum collections and the natural world. I am particularly drawn to unearthed relics, ancient and tribal jewellery, and the ceremonies and stories connected to them. These influences often find their way into the textures, forms and layered surfaces of my work.

I was born and raised in rural Norfolk and have a deep love for the North Norfolk coast, which I still visit often. I now work from my studio in Shropshire, where time spent exploring the Shropshire Hills continues to inspire my creative practice.

I regularly exhibit my work in both counties.
