After finishing she moved to London where she worked for 12 years as a commercial graphic artist. Her influences include Pop Art, Bauhaus, Aubrey Beardsley, Cornelius Makkink, Andy Warhol, Piet Mondrian and Atsuko Kudo, to name a few! Mildenhall states that she really finds inspiration from everywhere, from "Torture Garden to Typography.
