Graduating in 2012 from the University of York with an MA in Medieval Archaeology. My professional focus is on the archaeology of the Viking Age in the British Isles, concentrating on Viking Age Burial practices.

I orginally trained as a professional embroiderer at the Royal School of Needlework and then gained a degree in Archaeology at the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

My interest in textiles from archaeological contexts particularly footwear and basketry has developed through taking archaeology courses while also being a weaver, spinner, and basketmaker.
