Your teacher

Having studied Textiles at Manchester School of Art and focusing in on textile waste and solutions, I was devastated by the issues caused due to pollution, waste and climate change. I began my journey with up-cycling and mending techniques to combat this waste and my own anxiety. My practice explores and experiments with re-use and re-purposing processes within fashion and textiles. With community engagement at the heart of my motives, I am all about sustainable and creative wellbeing achieved through workshops and 1-1 tuition.
