I am a leather designer focused on handmade creation. I have long dedicated myself to the research and practice of vegetable-tanned leather craft. I am keen on exploring the inherent characteristics of materials, combining traditional craftsmanship with avant-garde design thinking, and expressing design ideas with leather as my medium.

My modular leather armour collection is inspired by historical women’s side saddles, combining saddle contours with female warrior culture. The pieces are hand-sewn, with some leather hand-dyed. Made from reclaimed vegetable-tanned hide, the garments are eco-friendly, durable and fully remakeable for future reuse.
