​

​

Final year Textile Design student studying at Nottingham Trent University, specialising in embroidery. With a broad creative background, my work is often multidisciplinary and combines both traditional hand and industrial embroidery techniques, as well as print and multimedia processes.

​

I am passionate about colour and material play, and enjoy combining techniques to create tactile surfaces. My work offers a contemporary aesthetic, often drawing inspiration from Scandi design and traditional crafting techniques to create textiles suited for the home and interior installation.

​

I'm a lover of the outdoors and have interests in sustainability in both my practise and my personal life, aiming to reduce waste and environmental impact, making sustainable choices always. 

​

I also have experience in graphic communication, and previously studied a foundation diploma at Leeds Arts University.
