I’m a writer based in Newcastle upon Tyne. 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.
I received a Northern Writers’ Award and mentoring from Jessie Greengrass to develop a collection of speculative short stories. In 2026, my fiction was Highly Commended in the Creative Futures Writers’ Award, selected from over 1,850 entries. I’m also working on a novel.
My scripts have been placed among the top submissions to the BBC Drama Room and selected for the BFI Script Lab. My debut short film, funded by Film Hub North x BFI Network, screened at BAFTA-qualifying and international festivals, including Norwich Film Festival and LA Queer Film Fest.
I deliver creative writing workshops across the North of England for organisations including New Writing North and I’m a CORE2 Mentor with the Writing Squad.
My creative facilitation is informed by training as a psychotherapeutic counsellor and a commitment to access and participant autonomy. Outside of writing, I work in film production championing d/Deaf, disabled and neurodivergent filmmakers.
