I am a writer, working both creatively and in marketing and communications within the events and corporate film industry. I graduated from the University of Oxford where I studied English Language and Literature, and I am currrently starting an MFA in Creative Writing at Birkbeck. I am passionate about the arts and the platform that they have to effect political and social change. I run a creative platform called t'ART Press, which encompasses an arts magazine and a digital showcase. I co-founded a theatre company called Pink Freud Theatre, with whom I devise performance and produce an annual creative festival.

BA English Language and LiteratureUniversity of Oxford

My course covered literature from Old English to the present day and where possible I focused my work on plays. During my third year I wrote my extended essay on feminist writing, particularly the gendered nature of violence. My dissertation topic was plays that were written as reactions to the AIDS crisis.
