About




My journey with metalwork began when I was 16, and from that moment, I was captivated by the endless possibilities of shaping and transforming metal. Over the years, I have explored jewellery-making with curiosity and passion, always pushing the boundaries of creativity.
​
For me, getting lost in the creative process is essential. It fuels my work, keeps me constantly learning, and ensures that every piece I create is infused with joy and discovery. Whether designing unique jewellery or guiding students through their own creative journeys, I am always excited by the endless possibilities that metalwork offers.
​
I’ve been fortunate to learn from inspirational teachers who not only mastered their craft but also shared a deep enthusiasm for making. Their influence has shaped my approach to both jewellery design and teaching. Now, as the founder of Jewellery Workshops, I strive to offer the same engaging and supportive learning environment—one that nurtures creativity, confidence, and skill.
​
Jewellery Workshops was founded in 2014 when I first started running mobile jewellery making workshops. The current school, in Alcester, Warwickshire, UK opened it's doors on the 21st July 2023. The workshop is fully equipped with hand tools and a micromotor at each bench. Larger tools such as the rolling mill, polishers, ring stretcher / reducer, casting machines, kiln, furnace, ultrasonic, guilottene, mandrels, doming blocks and punches also make up the workshop.

Please take a look at the diverse range of courses on offer. If you're not sure where to get started please get in touch and I'll be happy to guide you.
