BUSINESSES
After spending my 20s immersed in the music industry—owning a recording studio, running national tours, and
managing one of the UK’s historic music venues—I learned a lot about resilience and drive. But by 2021, after
pushing through the pandemic and reopening my venue following a 15-month closure, I realised that the stress
had drained the joy out of it for me.
It was during that time, when I had to learn social media to keep my business alive, that I had to learn how to
think on my feet and leverage social media properly. Which I then found fascinating and realised I had a natural
knack for it. What started as a necessity quickly became a passion, and by 2022, I handed over ownership of my
music venue to pursue this new journey full time.
In 2023, after a viral TikTok moment catapulted my influencer career, I left behind my settled life in Leicester
and moved to London with no money and no plan - I just knew that there was more to life than what I was
living. I’d also recently been diagnosed with ADHD, which helped me understand myself on a whole new level
- I stopped feeling “broken” and started embracing the things that made me unique. I finally felt free.
Today, I’m proud to be a curvy size 16, dressing to accentuate my curves instead of hiding them, and inspiring
other women to do the same. I’ve had the privilege of working with incredible brands like ASOS and Pretty
Little Thing, championing their curve ranges, and collaborating with Spacegoods to help naturally boost my
ADHD focus.
I’ve realised that life is about pivoting whenever you need to. There’s no obligation to be who you were 5
minutes ago. My mission is simple: I want to inspire women to be confident in who they are - embracing all their
quirks and wonders - and turn what they perceive as weaknesses into their greatest strengths.
