Skills

My teaching spans both traditional and modern methods, covering hand tools, machine work, woodworking techniques, CAD, and design for 3D making. I take a hands-on, material-focused approach that emphasises practical skill, experimentation, and understanding through making. As a highly skilled maker, I have worked with many architects, designers, and artists on high-end commissions. I have delivered workshops and teaching programs in schools and colleges, and I now run the New School of Furniture Making, where I teach adult short courses.

About

With over 12 years of experience teaching furniture making and product design, I ve worked with students of all ages at leading institutions including the Building Crafts College, London Metropolitan University, The London School of Architecture, and the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). My teaching spans traditional and modern methods covering hand tools, machine work, woodworking techniques, CAD, and design for 3D making rooted in a hands-on, material-focused approach. I was awarded the City of Guilds Medal for Excellence. I was the first woman to win the National Carpenters Craft Competition.
