My expertise is in fashion, lifestyle, and all things eyewear, which comes from my bachelor's in fashion marketing from the University for the Creative Arts and some humbling experience backstage at New York Fashion Week. Now, I've swapped the shows and studios for writing about the latest trends and how to choose the best eyewear. I’m from the U.K., and I’ve lived all over the world. I’m currently based in London, where I spend my time following the latest fashion and eyewear trends closely. I’ve previously worked for the Eli Z Group and Memocorp Australia.
