I'm a contemporary jewellery designer/maker based on the West Sussex/Hampshire border. I set up my first studio as part of a co-operative in Worthing, West Sussex in 2007, and since then have developed and evolved my style as a studio jeweller. I work from a studio in my garden, so have a ten-step commute to work, which is great!

My work is inspired by many things, especially pattern and form found in the natural world. I like to explore various textures and colours, and often use contrasting matt and polished finishes, or silver and gold together. My designs often have an organic element, which leads to an individual and unusual style.

I'm a Mum to 3 – Holly, Rory and our youngest, Harry. I love the flexibility that working for myself brings, enabling me to take care of my family whilst being creative!
