I’ve been working with artists and creatives to get the word out about their work for more than 12 years. I’ve been on both sides of the fence, as a blogger, handmade shop owner, craft show vendor and digital marketing specialist.

It's evolved since then, and I later ran my own e-commerce shop, where I sold my own handmade work alongside that of other artists.
