Literature has been part of my life for as long as I can remember,  getting lost in the worlds of books and writing has always brought me joy and solace. I was fortunate at a young age to study English Literature which exposed me to the works of great writers. Aside from a couple of plays I had written and helped develop from page to stage while studying Theatre at University,  other writing had largely taken a backseat during my degree until my final year when I started writing poetry to help me processes my thoughts. I continued writing poetry while I was furthering my career in Producing and decided to share my poems publicly online in 2014. I started attending spoken word open mic nights and performed my first gig at The Birdcage, Norwich in 2016.

 

 Soon after my first gig, I connected with a Suffolk based poetry producer who gave me a platform at their open mic nights and booking me for festivals.

 

 Since then, my work has been performed on many festival stages, radio and at literary events. I was commissioned by my local BBC Radio station in May 2020 to write a poem for their Make A Difference campaign. My articles have featured in Theatre Bubble, Sad Girls Club and DIVA Magazine. After my poetry was published in 2 anthologies by United Press,  I published my first collection of poetry in 2017 called  ‘Love & Loss: Collected Poems' and currently working on my second book of collected poems called 'Warrior Woman'. ​​
