About

I create contemporary fine jewellery that is both wild and elegant, structured and free.  Working from my light-filled studio in South West London, I handcraft each piece using rare and precious metals and ethically sourced gemstones and pearls. 

My unique style is built on contrasts, reflecting a life balanced between the structured world of law, the beauty and responsibility of being a mother, and the creative freedom of making.

By day, I work as a lawyer in the education sector, navigating legislation and policy.  Away from the office, I steps into a world of creativity, reflection and experimentation where jewellery designs evolve intuitively at the bench.  There I create bold and organic compositions using anodised niobium, silver and gold.  My signature pieces are created from countless hand-shaped elements, linked together to form dramatic necklaces, and earrings that shimmer in the light.

Journey to jewellery

While working as a lawyer in Auckland, I discovered jewellery through a desire to make with my hands.  I enrolled in an evening class at Peter Minturn Goldsmith School in Auckland and fell in love with jewellery making.  I continued my training in London after moving there, enrolling in CityLit’s two-year Fine Jewellery program which ran in the evening, allowing me to continue working in law while developing my skills and design language.

In 2022 I was selected for the Goldsmith’s Centre ‘Getting Started’ programme before stepping away from jewellery making in 2023 to have a baby.  Since returning to jewellery in 2025, motherhood has given me the confidence to create bold and expressive pieces, which led to being selected for ‘Shine’ in 2026, the Goldsmiths’ Centre’s new talent showcase of emerging jewellers and silversmiths.

Jewellery inspiration

I currently live in Battersea Riverside and walk along the river most evenings.  I'm inspired by the beauty of the foliage blooming and cascading against the backdrop of the River Thames, and many of my design ideas come to me when out walking.

Outside of the office, jewellery studio and family life, I have countless other passions including yoga, hiking, cycling, coffee culture and travel.  I'm also interested in illustration, lettering, embroidery and print-making - and I think that these influences will slowly make their way into my jewellery designs.

Jewellery as a form of personal expression

When I returned to jewellery making in 2025, I thought that motherhood and full-time work would mean limited time to create.  What I didn’t expect was that motherhood would give me the confidence to create work that felt bold and authentic, celebrating colour and beauty – even when life feels hard.

For women carrying the weight of work, family and all of the caring responsibilities that often go unseen, jewellery can be a little luxury that is completely their own.  A moment away from the emotional labour, the expectations and the endless putting everyone else first.  Something beautiful to wear simply because it makes you feel good.
