On your TV Screen:
The Great British Sewing Bee
for your growth, to venture out of your comfort zone
From phone calls to auditions, I progressed through all the stages until January 14th 2016 when the verdict came. I was one of the 10 contestants on the show!!

I feel blessed for the lessons learnt, discoveries and progressed made and encourage anyone to try a life changing experience, whatever the field.
