Tell us about your background and your work?

I’m originally from Manchester where I grew up. Most of my family are still there. When I left school I visited Dublin in the summer to see a girlfriend, taking some time out to figure out which direction I was going to head in and I was asked to model in a Katharine Hamnett show and that’s where I started my career in fashion. I moved to London, continuing to work as a model, with several years in New York and Paris along the way. I started looking at my wellbeing whilst living in New York, looking at courses, and reading up on many different modalities .. inspired, I decided it was time to move back to London and study full time to become a naturopath and herbalist.

ABOUT HOLE AND CORNER

Hole & Corner was launched in Dorset in 2013 as a publication celebrating and promoting creativity, craftsmanship, heritage and authenticity.

The name is inspired by an old English phrase:‘Hole-and-Corner: adj, a secret place or a life lived away from the mainstream’It is about people who spend more time doing than talking, for whom content is more important than style; whose work is their life. It’s about telling stories of dedication.

Hole & Corner magazine is published biannually, dedicated to stories of craft, beauty, passion and skill. It is distributed internationally, with stockists including Do You Read Me?! in Berlin, Athenaeum Niewscentrum in Amsterdam and 300 Barnes & Noble stores in the US.

The online site offers regular news, recommendations and interviews with those who embody the Hole & Corner lifestyle – and offers the opportunity to buy products from our featured makers or join them at live events where you can see their unique skills up close and even try your hand at workshops and learn from the best.

In 2023, Hole & Corner is celebrating its 10th birthday, and what a lot there is to celebrate.
