About me
I am a creative individual with previous experience in audio production, contemporary art sales, creative programming, music management and stage managing. My experience in both not-for-profit and commercial arts environments has taught me logistical and creative problem-solving that goes into high quality cultural output, requiring clear communication of common goals across diverse teams, with an eye for balancing commercial accessibility with artistic and cultural worth. I aspire to use every opportunity to connect different cultures through dynamic and vivid programming that questions everything and only inspires more questions.

Education

History (BA) First Class HonsUniversity of Bristol
- Bristol, United Kingdom
I have extensively studied twentieth century public histories in Britain, looking closely at notions of identity in many contexts. Much of my research focuses closely on art and its role in society, for example, my dissertation thesis explores the interaction between British Surrealism in 1930s and its connection with sexuality and taboo.
