About Me

I am a recent graduate from the Arts University Bournemouth (AUB) where I studied Costume and Performance Design, with a focus on costume interpretation. Throughout my degree I have enjoyed working on collaborative projects and shows such as Day of Dance and We Burn Brightly. I am particularly interested in corsetry and the recreation of historical costumes such as my recent costume inspired by Elizabeth I. Whilst working on my degree I created corsets and other garments in my spare time to develop my sewing skills and also to sell on Etsy. I am a hard-working and organised person and I love challenging myself with new projects where I can learn more and improve my skills.
