Children’s writer, writing for upper middle grade, teen and YA. My debut middle grade title Skelly Boy will be published by Walker Books (UK & AUS) and Candlewick (US) in early 2028. Skelly Boy was shortlisted for the Times/Chicken House Children’s Fiction Competition 2025. I was a London Library Emerging Writer 25/26. My interests include gaming (video games & table top role playing games), contemporary issues, food, humour and niche cultural scenes.
