• I’m responsible for the overall strategy, direction, management and curation of the shop at the Garden Museum, a charity and heritage site in London. As the sole buyer and manager, I closely monitor sales with a focus on growth and development.
• From the selection of permanent ranges to the curation of products for temporary exhibitions, I liaise with publishers, suppliers and manufacturers; collaborate with authors, artists, designers and makers; and work closely across all departments of the museum too.

• I started Slow and Sow in 2020, working with plants to create handcrafted, naturally dyed accessories. Our products champion the slow and the seasonless, exploring the connection between what we wear and what we grow.
• All of our work is rooted in nature, with comfort and utility in mind. Our guiding principle is to honour the natural world and share ancient, ancestral practices, helping engage and inform others to the beauty and magic that comes from natural dyes.
