About me / About business or organisation:

I work with a small team of designers and artisans in the UK and semi desert regions in Asia.
I believe beautiful elegant clothes that speak to Western women, can be produced sustainably and that within the coming years eco brands will find a natural place in most independent stores.

Career history / Company history:

I'm trained as a psychologist and combined this work with my graduate management training within an international organisation. I developed my commercial experience in a number of different sectors, before running my own commercial business for fifteen years. Journeys to Africa and Asia led me to see how how little it took to make a difference to people's lives and ,that we can use globalisation to create that difference.
