Hello, For the past twenty years I have been making handbags and running my own brand.

I have now created workshops that have helped people come out of their shell and give them a confidence that most of us take for granted no matter what our challenges are.

I have also taught workshops to corporates for the purpose of team building and a creative release away from jobs.

I grew up in a creative household and could sew, knit and draw before my feet could touch the ground when sitting down.

I was a dancer before working in fashion. Both careers require self belief and hopefully, I am able to pass the mindset of thinking outside the box in the process.

Fast forward, I went back to collage to learn more about fashion. Part of my coursework was to design a bag. I fell in love with bag making and learned enough to start selling little cloth bags I made at Portobello Market as a sideline as I worked in the city. Gradually, I began to learn more about leather and the handbag making process that took me to a professional standard. Even though I work with a team now I still study and make, because we produce limited edition and unique bags which requires us to have a high standard of quality finishing. I'm grateful and joyful about continuous learning.

We get orders from all of the world and have showcased in London, Paris and New York.

I have always enjoyed teaching and seeing the physical change in a person when they have achieved something new.
