In 2019, I completed an Art Foundation at Central Saint Martins before studying Creative Direction at London College of Fashion. Since graduating, I have worked within creative companies in roles spanning Studio Assistant, PA, and Office Manager. While not the path I initially anticipated, these positions have provided invaluable experience and enabled me to return to London following a period of travel in 2023.
Alongside these roles, my need for a creative outlet has continued to grow. Through my studies, I developed a broad yet refined skillset across photography, styling, set design, film, and visual storytelling. I have come to recognise that my creative perspective is not limited to a single discipline, but can be applied across a wide range of mediums.
During that time, I also developed a passion for spacial design, particularly through event planning, floral arrangements and table scapes, as well as content creation. I enjoy taking content both personally and professionally, whether that’s for a restaurant, an event (weddings, brand pop-ups, supper-clubs, etc) and the places and experiences I come across in my everyday life. Photography stands as a core skill within my work and I embrace the opportunity to utilise it in a range of projects.
LO & BEHOLD represents a natural culmination of this journey; a space that brings together my varied experience, creative instincts, and ongoing exploration. It is both a foundation and a platform for future growth, as I continue to evolve as a creative.

At the intersection of skill and creative instinct, each project becomes an opportunity to produce something considered and distinctive. With an open and exploratory approach, every brief is treated as a chance to develop new ideas and push creative boundaries.
Driven by curiosity and a commitment to refinement, I embrace challenge as a means of growth; continually evolving through each new project.
