Before I turned my hand to woodturning, I spent years immersed in practical, hands-on crafts, inspired by my resourceful Yorkshire upbringing. My love of creativity and making led me to explore woodturning in 2001, a craft that has since become my passion. Over the years, I have developed my skills, earned national accolades, and taken on exciting challenges in the world of woodturning. My work has been honoured with awards such as First Prize in the Felix Levy Competition and recognition in The Master’s Challenge, among others. I have also been privileged to have my designs showcased at woodworking shows and in national publications. I continue to challenge myself with new techniques, blending tradition and innovation in all I create.
