ABOUT

 

I am a Cornish writer and performer (with Brummie Roots) for Theatre, Film and TV. 

 

After completing a BA in English & Drama at Royal Holloway, I went on to study for an MA in Theatre & Performance at Queen Mary, where I developed a love of creating bold and challenging theatre, often using live-art and playful multi-media techniques. I then completed an MA in Acting at Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, where I am now a guest-lecturer and creative tutor. I then trained as a playwright on courses at Theatre 503, The Arcola and The Criterion Theatre’s New Writing Group 2019 & Development Groups.

I have written several plays, both short and full length, and my play, Please, Feel Free to Share, was recently published with Methuen Drama and is now being developed for TV.

My new play, Gestation  was runner up for the Alpine Fellowship Theatre Prize 2025. 

I am the founder of Scatterjam, often working closely with a team of associate artists to create and produce female-led, darkly comic, work that is socially and politically engaged whilst being physically and structurally explorative.

I also work as a screenwriter, having completed a Filmmaking Course at MetFilm in 2022 and then going onto to write, direct and produce my debut short film, STALEMATE (2023).

was then selected as one of twelve writers on the Channel 4 Screenwriting Scheme 2023, am currently one of eight writers on Dancing Ledge's Screenskills Scheme 2025 and was recently selected for a BBC New Voices Story Conference. 

I am represented as a writer by Eva Bell at SayleScreen and am currently in development with several ideas across Theatre, TV, Film and Radio.
