About Me: I am a Fashion Design graduate of Central Saint Martins, where I achieved a first class degree. I have industry experience from interning at JW Anderson in London and Mazarine in Paris as well as working as a hand-painter at Alexander McQueen. As a UAL Short Course Fashion Tutor working on summer schools at CSM, I teach print development, life drawing and fashion illustration. I also am a trained Talitha Arts Practitioner, hosting therapeutic arts workshops across London for vulnerable adults and children. I am currently the founder and creative director of Three Tables, a sustainable backdrop and fashion brand due to launch in Autumn 2024; and, co-founder of The Gathering Table, a natural dye and fabric paint studio, where we grow and create natural colours for the fashion industry. Before studying and working in fashion, I completed a Law degree, worked as a language teacher and spent time at various charities. I have a wealth of teaching experience as a fashion and art tutor, supporting students in their successful applications to fashion and art colleges, BA and MA programmes in the UK; helping current college & BA students achieve higher grades; and, guiding hobbyists in acquiring new skills.
