I am an accessories designer specializing in bags. I also lecture at the London College of Fashion, helping new fashion entrepreneurs to establish their brands through short professional courses, mentoring, and consultancy. My new book Design, Manufacture, and Sell Your Bag Collection, is published by Bloomsbury Press.
