My jewellery practice explores the creative and conceptual potential of re-purposed materials through colour-rich, contemporary design. Working predominantly with salvaged wood offcuts, Formica, and found objectspaired with precious elements like silver and pearls. I seek to challenge traditional hierarchies of value and provoke new conversations about material worth, perception and transformation.

​

Often beginning with what’s discarded or overlooked, I let the material lead. This intuitive approach allows me to explore contrast and composition, resulting in vibrant, characterful pieces that balance delicate elements with bold form. Colour plays a vital role throughout my work, acting as both aesthetic driver and emotional connector.

Based at my studio in Aberdeen, my work has been exhibited in projects such as Radical Jewellery Makeover (Scottish Goldsmiths Trust) and Earth Materials Matter (The Barn Arts). Alongside my studio practice, I am an experienced educator, delivering creative workshops and jewellery-making courses for art schools, festivals, and community initiatives across Scotland. My practice is deeply engaged in making contemporary jewellery accessible and inclusive, with a focus on storytelling through materials.
