but who am I really...
I'm an audio-book listening, tea-drinking, pattern-clashing, crazy dancing, flower painting, fashion-following, print-obsessed, not-always-serious wife, mama, designer, mentor and community cheerleader. I'm a glass-half-full kinda' gal fueled by passion and drive, which has come in handy throughout my journey in entrepreneurship. My main loves are my family and friends, the belly-aching laughs they evoke and the joy of watching them grow into the beautiful humans they are.

the artist - combining skilled techniques and intuitive creativity to craft unique, style-specific, visually captivating works.
As an artist, I’m deeply inspired by nature, particularly flowers, which I use as a central theme in my artwork. My work ranges from whimsical and ethereal to bold and expressive, capturing different moods through stylization and trend. Pushing the boundaries of traditional techniques my designs offer an exclusive and premium outcome. Through hand painting and digital design, I aim to transform the ordinary into something extraordinary, infusing every piece with personality and a distinct creative voice.

Discovering my focus
A journey built on foundation skills, exploration and passion.
Stepping into college, I knew creativity was my path. During my A-levels, I dived into fine art and textiles, honing foundational skills while experimenting with different mediums and techniques. This sparked my love for design and led me to an immersive year of exploring everything from sculpture to photography and more in my art foundation diploma. This shaped me into the diverse and hungry artist I am, equipped with a broad understanding of artistic disciplines.
This is when I found my calling, print design, the perfect blend of art and textiles. I knew exactly where I wanted to focus.
Landing my dream textiles design job
From Uni student to designing for leading high-street brands within weeks
In 2010, I was scouted straight out of university after showcasing at The New Designers show in London. I joined a leading textile studio, designing for dream high-street clients even before graduation.
It was a whirlwind of on-the-job learning, equal parts intimidating and exciting, seeing my designs on the rails of my favourite brands or the front page of the press!
Those early days shaped my approach to design and ignited a passion for creating pieces that resonate with people.
A giant leap for my business
Embracing freedom, doubling sales, and landing my first 1-1 client
It was time to get serious about my business. I set up my limited company, packed up, and moved back to sunny Somerset to dive headfirst into freelancing. I had the freedom to make my own rules, create my own briefs, and steer my own ship. Sales doubled, and I was able to work half the hours I’d been doing in the studio.
This gave me the time to start finding my own clients and collaborating directly with brands, something I'd been excited to explore for years. This led to my first 1-1 freelance client, marking a major milestone in my freelance journey.
Flexible changes for a thriving business
Exploring new avenues, and new parts to my creative character
From teaching a watercolour course to over 700 creatives of Facebook to launching my first official course, Complete Compositions. It was a "wow, I’m really doing this" moment.
I also began licensing my work, adapting to thriving areas of the design industry.
It became clear that flexibility was key when navigating business peaks and troughs.
Opening the studio
Following my creative passion and introducing more ways to get my art and designs into the world
With a successful mentoring and education business and a foolproof strategy for designing client-driven prints, I am opening my own design studio. With ready-to-purchase prints and a calendar of appointments for custom work, I am doubling down on my design business and diving back into the creative obsessed I always am.
