After taking redundancy in March 2021, I fell upon a passion for wood working. It all started as a way to manage my mental health challenges and it's grown exponentially since then. My natural curiosity, and some wonderful people I have met along the way, have lit a creative fire inside me!​

As a self-taught woodworker I was incredibly proud to be approached to participate in season two of Britain's Best Woodworker. With only a year of experience behind me, I competed against some extremely talented and inspirational people. It was an exceptionally hard, but immensely rewarding experience; I'm so proud of what I achieved and am delighted to have found a community where I truly feel supported and engaged.

My wood working journey continues and I can't wait to see what new skill I'll be learning on my next big project!
