Biography
I began my ceramic training by taking various courses and receiving tutorials from some of the most prominent contemporary ceramics practitioners at City Lit, including Annie Turner and Robert Cooper. After completing my Diploma in Higher Education, my work was featured in several exhibitions, including FRESH at the British Ceramic Biennale, London Craft Week, and One Year On in London. In 2016, I was one of five ceramic artists shortlisted for the Henry Rothschild Ceramic Bursary.
My work has also been featured in several prominent magazines, including Hole & Corner, CRAFTS, Ceramic Monthly, and Ceramic Review. I have exhibited my work internationally at events such as China International Craft Week in Hangzhou, as well as at galleries including Ateliers Galerie in Belgium and Lantarnam Grange Arts Centre in Wales. Additionally, my work has been collected by established names such as Wedgwood.
My ultimate ambition is to have my work widely recognized and collected internationally, and I am constantly striving to create pieces that are innovative, tactile, and visually striking.
