After studying at the London School of Dramatic Art, I spent several years working in theatres around the UK and sold and exhibited drawings and paintings while my children were small.
In 1990 I set up a textile studio in rural Galloway in South West Scotland in the
design of wearable sculpture and headwear.
I now concentrate specifically on designing
and making textile hats.
As a textile designer I am totally committed to the concept of good and innovational design in contemporary living and attempt to create a continuous collection of original and distinctive textile hats of universal appeal.
