I graduated with a BA Hons in Graphic Design from the University of Brighton in 2004. Having moved back to my hometown of Newcastle upon Tyne I began working as a freelance Illustrator alongside setting up and running my business, Prod, with my husband Tom Madge, making screenprinted leather belts and accessories with our own pattern designs.

I have worked extensively for The Crack Magazine and had commissioned work for clients such as Shoo Fly Publishing, Hundredth Monkey PR, Brewery Arts Centre, New Writing North and private commissions.  I have exhibited throughout the North-East and am a member of Illustration group Set of Drawers, www.setofdrawers.co.uk

I also run illustration and print workshops with children, youth groups and teacher training.
