About me

I've been on maternity leave from late 2021. During this time I have launched a menswear brand called M1LE LONDON. My background in the Arts covers project management, events planning and production, communications, outreach and audience development. Recent clients include Art Night (London's largest free art festival - with its fifth edition taking place Summer 2021), Mimosa House (nonprofit space in London), and Richard Saltoun Gallery (Mayfair based gallery specialising Feminist and Conceptual Art), amongst other project-based work.
