About

Born in the New Forest, between the trees and the coast, I left Hampshire for London where I now live. I may have left the country for the city, but the forest and the coast are where my imagination roams. I love creating stories that mix city life with the natural world, provoking, questioning and exploring the human experience. I like to take my audience and readers on an adventure delving into complex stories, treating them in an original way. Audiences and readers have described my work as surreal, lyrical, brave and beautiful.

I’ve come to writing from theatre directing, training at University of Kent, then Rose Bruford College, where I wrote my first play that was later published by BRAND Literary Magazine. I was Assistant and then Associate Director at Apocryphal Theatre an experimental theatre collective where the line between director, creator and performer blurred.

My plays have been performed at New Diorama Theatre, King’s Head Theatre, Theatre503, Omnibus Theatre, Brockley Jack Studio Theatre, Camden People’s Theatre and The Actor’s Temple, London.

My play The Future is Mine was shortlisted for the Introduce Yourself Festival at Finborough Theatre in 2018.

My plays The Last Request and The Birdcatcher were published in BRAND Literary Magazine.

My flash fiction Traitor was published on storieswithpictures.org.

I have very few photos of my stage work, so commissioned Andy Winter, an artist living in Brighton, to create the illustrations on this site to give you a flavour of the pieces. Check out his website Winter Draws On for more examples of his work.
