I began making and creating from an early age and made soft toys, needlecrafts and sketches which I sold to friends and neighbours. I went to art college at 16 and then completed a degree in Fashion and Textiles at university. I went on to work as a show and handbag designer for many years, travelling all over the world for inspiration and with my work. After my family was grown, I have since retrained as a psychotherapist and my creativity was to become my hobby. I am an enthusiast amateur photography and use my photos to make cards.
