I am a Lecturer in Fashion Art Direction with a practice in creative direction and textile installation.

As Head of Creative (2014-2018) at Liberty London and across a range of in-house and freelance I have worked across the fashion industry in creative direction, set design and interiors for fifteen years. That journey has featured collaborations with many established cultural institutions, notably The Royal Ballet, Victoria & Albert Museum and the Royal Academy of Arts. I have lectured and mentored students from London College of Fashion, Vogue Condé Nast and Brighton School of Art prior to taking this role at Manchester Fashion Institute. My research explores sustainable future fashion space, textile installation and borderless future practices between art and fashion-related disciplines.
