I began my career with a “proper job”, in the learning team at the National Museums of Scotland. I managed an interactive learning centre and a team of staff. Since then, I have continued to work with clients in the heritage sector, designing projects for schools, community groups and public events.
I believe that using arts and crafts can enhance participants’ engagement with and connection to heritage sites. By actively participating in art making, individuals can deepen their enjoyment, understanding and connection to the past, while also gaining insights into the present.
