Producing collections with a small local team, distributing to Boutiques nationally for the next four years, after which came my new venture- family, and multiple trips to the Northern Territory. The Business was put on hold indefinitely, and now a million years later it is ready to re emerge. Whilst in the NT, I completed a Certificate III and IV in Business and a Certificate IV in Design at Charles Darwin University where I also discovered Aboriginal woven products which inspired me and now adorn my home back in Newcastle.
