A qualified art education tutor, I have previously worked for Stockton-on-Tees BC, Middlesbrough BC (in collaboration with Mind), Redcar & Cleveland BC and, most recently, at the  New Art Exchange, Hyson Green, Nottingham, facilitating Saturday Art Club and also as an exhibition invigilator.

My work explores the tensions that arise from our world of mass consumerism, drawing on my own personal experiences of life in a working class community.
