After completing my post-graduate study in Fine Art at the Royal Academy Schools I've worked as a designer, creative director and digital accessibility practitioner as well as an experimental digital printmaker, photographer and maker.

METAL guru is the brand name for my range of handmade stimming jewellery, wearables and objects designed for adults. Every piece is individually crafted and each carries unique properties that take time to discover. I use recycled or up-cycled materials, including silver, steel, aluminium, off-cut, and waste wood wherever possible. All my designs are non-gender specific and can be worn on the body or kept on the person.
