Biography
I have always had a deep interest in fashion and the concept
behind how garments are developed and constructed. For 25 years I
have successfully run my sewing business with the design and
manufacture of both apparel wear and soft furnishings, catering for
both domestic and industrial clients nation wide.
In 2006 I successfully completed a BA (Hons) Degree in Combined
Design and also achieved a Postgraduate Certificate in Education.
On completion of these qualification I took on lecturing roles both
in Further and Higher Education and became Course Leader for the
National Diploma in Fashion and Clothing at Doncaster College.
Since then I have focused all my teaching on level 4, 5, and 6
students and I am now Programme Leader for Post Graduate Diploma in
Creative Pattern Cutting here at University Centre, Doncaster.
