For many years – most of them spent in London, UK – I worked in the fashion industry as a garment technician and, latterly, heading up production and development for various companies. I decided that I wanted to try to put some of this experience into practice for myself and get back to my hometown of Glasgow. I love bags and found that I could happily spend hours working on designing and creating them.
