About me:

I was born in Glasgow and moved to Nottingham in 1999 to study Textile Design.  I've been designing ever since.  'Red Shoes' was born in 2007 where I created a collection of leather handbags of a personal nature (see website for more information). 

This exciting opportunity to do the artist in residence placement has given me and will give me the chance to design, develop and produce my next collection....I'm very excited about it!
