About me

Imagination and a love for stories are what drive my ambition to work in the entertainment and editorial industry. Marginalised voices within the arts have always been a central focus of my work and have been the catalyst to most of my decision making, whether it be my next project or the next film or book I’m about to devour. Currently Digital Editor at Azeema Magazine & Community Editor at BRICKS. Previously News Writer at It’s Nice That. Profiled in GQ Middle East.
