About the Author
After completing a Masters in Textile Design, with my love of upcycling and repurposing I have developed a range of jewellery and accessories made primarily from offcuts and recycled materials of wood and leather. My designs are mainly influenced by geometric shapes and patterns but many pieces are dictated by the nature of the shape, size or form of the materials available. Having nearly a decade of teaching experience behind me, I have built up an extensive range of skills and I am very lucky to now have the luxury of time and space to make my own products and to experiment with different techniques and styles. Ultimately though, I thoroughly enjoy being able to pass on my knowledge and passion for leather craft to other people by running a series of workshops. I cater for both individuals with one to one tuition and groups of up to 6 at my Surrey studio or 12 at various venues in London.
