Driven and how! That would be the best way to describe Michelle Pierre-Carr; a stylist and art director .
Michelle, a Commonwealth 4x400m silver medalist and World Athletics Championship finalist, began her career broadcasting at BBC Radio Five Live and Breakfast TV where her passion for sport and stellar contacts gained her exclusive access to the UK’s sporting elite – which her bosses loved, of course.

No one trick pony on the broadcasting front, Michelle has covered the full spectrum of stories; from breaking news at BBC South Today, to entertainment and lifestyle at The Press Association reporting from London Fashion Week, the Mercury Music Prize Awards and various red carpet premieres. Michelle was also the front of camera presenter for online media providers Virgin, Tiscali and MSN.
Multi-talented and with a passion for fashion and design, Michelle set up her own wedding planning and design business in 2009 and runs the creative arm carrying out editorial photo shoots to inspire for magazines such as Condé Nast Brides right through to Little London and Baby.
