Daisy has always gravitated towards music and creating. She united these interests in her early 20s when she sought out a luthier asking for an apprenticeship armed with nothing but a fierce commitment and unwavering enthusiasm.
She was subsequently awarded a QEST Garfield Weston Foundation Apprenticeship to formalise her training. This support enabled her to study lutherie full time, with the end goal of producing a world-class standard of work.
After receiving the Newby Trust Excellence Award, Daisy now runs her own company, Tempest Guitars. Her work is sold worldwide and she builds the highest value guitars in the UK, with a current waiting list of over 6 years.
