Halima Jade Cassell is a pioneering and trailblazing woman working in creative fields. She defines herself as a sculptor, she sculpts her clay with a chisel as she carves. “For me, working in the creative industry is working with like-minded people and working in what I call an uplifting kind of career. When people do creative things, you're working with that energy within, instead of having a very static job. I'm very lucky to be working within that area.”
