I’m a Writer, Performer, Poet & Dramaturg from Merseyside, UK.  A graduate of the Playwright’s Programme at the Liverpool Everyman Theatre, I have  had several plays produced including, ‘The Brink’ and ‘Gun Metal Blue’, which won the Blink.Theatre Award for New Writing in 2017. My play, ‘Buckled’ was commissioned as part of the ‘UP NEXT’ Festival at Unity Theatre, Liverpool in 2023 and toured venues in the Northwest in 2024 and 2025.  In May 2026, ‘Buckled’ was published by Salamander Street. 

I am the Director of ‘Sober Scribbles’ and a recipient of Arts Council England ‘Developing your Creative Practice’ funding.  I am very proud to be a Trustee of Unity Theatre, Liverpool and am committed to supporting emerging writers in the development of new work for stage.
