I am a storyteller and theatre and arts producer. I consult for organisations in the arts and cultural sector and education sector working with Race Equality Networks and provide workshops and courses in leadership, anti-racism and D&I.
I am on the board of trustees for Theatre Centre and on the advisory boards for Beyond Face Theatre and Creative Leamington.
I am part of the Black Womxn in Theatre team behind the iconic #WeAreVisible photoshoot of over 250 Black womxn at the Globe Theatre in July 2019. During the pandemic, Black Womxn in Theatre partnered with Eclipse Theatre and Bush Theatre in creating #AllOfUs campaign and #HearToStay a 4-week redundancy recovery care programme. This saw 50 Black, Asian and ethnically diverse people who were made redundant or were at risk of, come together and receive financial, mentoring and job support.
I co-created and edited Hear Me Now Audition Monologues for Actors of Colour with Tamasha, published by Oberon Books. Hear Me Now Vol.2 will be published this year.
