I am a designer maker trained at Hereford College of Arts, graduating with a BA (Hons) in Contemporary Applied Arts with a background in mechanics. I produce intricate work which reflects my lifelong interest in architecture, science fiction design and industrial mechanics, the size of pieces varies, as do the designs, all of which are one offs. These contemporary items are also inspired by the lavish Italian cycle components that I encountered while working in the cycle industry.

I would like to thank the ARTS COUNCIL OF WALES for supporting me with a research and development grant this has allowed me to purchase the equipment needed to establish myself as an independent designer maker.I can't imagine being this position without this assistance and encouragement.
