I spent my childhood in rural England where I
learnt an abiding love of nature. After I had
qualified as a Registered Nurse, I married & went
out to Africa to live. I was fortunate enough to
spend 15 years in various parts of that colourful &
wonderfully vibrant continent and much of my work
still carries that influence.

Exploring and experimenting has been the core of my existence, and the intriguing question of "What happens if?" has been the driving force behind much of my work. Working in textiles is very exciting, allowing great versatility and endless possibilities. Consequently, my work is constantly changing and moving on towards new horizons.

Also I am an active member of the Western
Australian Fibre and Textile Association (WAFTA)
and two Perth embroidery groups – “84 Contemporary Textile Group” and “Designing
Women”.
