About Me

I am currently working as Textile Conservator. I have specialist skills in costume mounting and developing acrylic mannequins, although can undertake all aspects of textile conservation. I have also undertaken work on other objects including some paper and gilt frames. I undertake the preventive care of the collection including environmental monitoring and pest management. I manage larger conservation projects including the freezing of the entire first floor due to moth infestation and more recently the ongoing conservation of all the listed floors in the building. Working in such an incredible and historically important building, I have become increasingly interested in buildings conservation and historic interiors.

I am able to take on freelance work and smaller jobs privately. I can cover interventive textile treatments and provide advice on display, storage and preventive conservation.
