Charlene has gained a degree in Textile design, which saw her develop her need for using her hands to create beautiful things. But after her studies she was transported into the world of fashion having worked with some of the top stylists in the industry. This has seen her work on many fashion shoots as a stylist and an assistant working on still photographic shoots as well as TV commercials, and short films.

​​With this not being enough for Charlene she has now gone back to her textile roots and is now facilitating Art and Craft workshops in and around London, working with children and adults. As Charlene is always attending workshops herself to develop her knowledge of crafts this then lends itself to her passing on her knowledge to others, thus keeping up traditions old and new.
