About me
Since graduating in 2021 from Sussex with a Philosophy degree, I have been on a hunt to find a junior copy writing role where I can learn new skills from the creatives around me. My interests span wide from Psychology and Philosophy in essence of my degree to discussing complex topics such as Colourism, Race, Sexuality and Femininity. Personal projects that I am working on include a book that is a year in the making which is about the value of others advice in your 20’s as well as featuring in a couple of podcasts, attending open spoken word nights and being apart of young writers groups. I am really looking for a community who will guide and further inspire me and in hope that I can do the same for others.
