About me.
Based in Bristol, UK, I am a creative writer and essayist with arts journalism and editorial experience. I gained an MA in Creative and Critical Writing with distinction from Birkbeck College, University of London in 2023, winning the MA Creative Writing Prize for best dissertation.
My writing has been shortlisted for The Curae Prize 2023 for nonfiction, and long-longlisted for The Brick Lane Short Story Prize 2023. I’ve had creative nonfiction and personal essays published in The Curae Anthology, Oranges Journal, Magical Women, and The Mechanics Institute Review.
I’ve written about all things music for God is in the TV Zine and book reviews for The Mechanics Institute Review. My opinion and editorial writing have been featured in The Everyday Magazine, where I was Music and Arts Editor from 2020 until 2021, and then Chief Culture Editor until June 2022.
Throughout 2020 I ran 19 Stories, a project archiving people’s stories from the Covid-19 pandemic.
I also have extensive experience writing and researching articles for Bristol Autism Support, a charity providing information and support services to parents and carers of autistic children and adults, and working with therapists and visual artists to develop their website written content.
