I have a wide breadth of knowledge in materials and their properties with an emphasis on craftsmanship within my own practice as an Artist -Maker. I am confident with operating heavy machinery and I am familiar with woodworking techniques and processes. I have experience in a range of mould making processes from Plaster, Silicone, Sand, Alginate and Wax resulting in casting in materials such as. Ceramic slip, Concrete, Resin, Jesomonite, Pewter, Plaster and Bronze.
I have an eye for detail, finishing processes and I can produce pieces which are fit for public consumption. I can also explain my thoughts and ideas clearly through technical drawings, presentation and public speaking. However, I also have experience in metalwork, welding, plastics, CAD/CAM, 3D printing, soft modelling and curation.

BA (Hons) Artist Designer: MakerCardiff Metropolitan University
- Cardiff, United Kingdom
This course allowed me to have full creative freedom within my personal practise where I mainly focused on architecture and interior design using woodworking methods and processes with an interest in ceramics and soft modelling. I improved my skills in CAD primarily using Rhino to develop pieces for 3D printing. In my final year, I focused on slipcasting using a combination of woodworking and mould making skills where I developed a unique process for slipcasting and glazing to get my desired outcome.

BA(Hons) Drawing and Applied ArtsUniversity of the West of England
- Bristol, United Kingdom
This course introduced me to applied art processes such as resin casting, body casting, metal casting, digital embroidery, textiles, screen printing, lithography, lino printing, welding, metalwork and sculptural techniques. With the help of the technicians, I developed my knowledge of materials and their properties and gained experience in curating final shows as well as assisting graduating peers with their final degree shows. I became confident in presenting my ideas publicly and giving and receiving constructive criticism, which encouraged team-building skills.
