Hello,

I’ve always seen the world as a creative place, and I’m lucky to have been encouraged to embrace that—finding ways to explore, express, and make sense of the world around me through creativity.

Over the years, I’ve dedicated myself to projects that spark that same sense of discovery in others, no matter their age. I love working collaboratively, paying attention to the little details, and, most of all, witnessing how the arts bring people together in meaningful, transformative ways.
This website aims to showcase some of the projects, methodologies and themes that are  at the heart of my career.



After graduating with a BA in Performance Design in 2005, I went on an adventure with two artists friends and we started StrangeWorks, a site-responsive and public arts company focused on creating large-scale participatory events.
We approached every project with a playful, DIY spirit—often subversive, always inviting audiences to see the world differently and reimagine who they are (or could become) within it. Our work blurred the lines between art and everyday life, turning public spaces into immersive, thought-provoking experiences.

"There is something so transforming about this odd spectacle that it feels subversive. But then the best underground theatre is often rooted in the community, overground and fully visible."
—Lyn Gardner, The Guardian, on StrangeWorks

I have over 15 years experience collaborating with arts organisations, artists and communities across the UK and  internationally.
I have produced work for the Barbican Arts Centre, the Royal Shakespeare Company, University of the Arts London, Walsall Art Gallery, Norfolk & Norwich Festival amongst others
I have also been  a visiting practitioner for the University of the Arts London and the Pop Academy, Holland.
I graduated from UAL with an MA in Narrative Environments in 2016.


I am currently working as Fevered Sleep’s Programme producer.
