I am an ex fashion stylist. I have been in the fashion industry for six years. I started out on the fashion desk of Elle magazine and had a lot of fun with the other 'workies' as we were known. It was lovely to work with the fabulous Sairey Stemp, Claudia Navone and Ian R Webb. I left Elle magazine to assist Lauren Goldstein on the international fashion desk of Time (Warner). I later went freelance and enjoyed working with Harriet Jagger, Claudia Navone, Chloe Beeney and Neeley Moore.

I was then offered a long term contract with Sunday Times Style magazine. Working with Helen Kenny and Talib Choudhry (an ex Elle workie)was pure fashion. After Style, I worked with the gorgeous Hershey pascual at Star magazine - where I stayed until I had King Alex (my baby boy) in 2004. I am now setting up and running a model agency that represents models of colour. After doing my research, I discovered that there was no high calibre, high fashion model agency that represented models of colour and so 'othermodels' was born. Check out my website.
