I’m a Newcastle-based writer and screenwriter. Following a Northern Writers Award with the Word Factory, I’m developing speculative short fiction with mentorship support.
My writing explores queerness, grief, ecology, and work, set in ordinary places where animals arrive at thresholds, realism slips into the uncanny, and relationships to self and the body begin to unravel.
My scripts have been longlisted for the Pint-Sized Playwriting Award, placed among the top submissions to the BBC Drama Room, and selected for the BFI Script Lab. My debut short film screened at BAFTA-qualifying and international festivals, including Norwich Film Festival and LA Queer Film Fest.
I design and deliver creative writing workshops across the North of England, working with organisations including New Writing North and as a CORE2 Mentor with the Writing Squad. My practice is informed by my training as a psychotherapeutic counsellor, with a commitment to access and participant autonomy.
I’m available for commissions and collaborations. Get in touch to discuss projects or opportunities.
