Weaving Magic
With
Words
I'm all about creating encouraging spaces where people of any age, background or ability feel confident to connect with their own voice, and feel proud as they express what matters to them, all in their own unique way.
Since my early twenties I've had absolute delight of working as a writer in lots of different guises. As writer in residence in schools and community spaces, the people I get to create with wow me every single time—I will never forget some of their incredible pieces.
​
I was poet in residence at @Bristol (now We The Curious), collaborating with filmmaker Mark Parry to create a piece that was screened in the Planetarium, and my work made its way onto the telly and radio and into festivals where I've got up to all sorts of wordy mischief as a poet on the prowl.
​
I specialise in spoken word, and love to play with others, weaving together our ideas to create one-of-a-kind collaborative pieces.
As a creative mentor and facilitator, there is nothing quite like the magic that happens when people bravely step up to say, 'Okay, this is me. Here I am, just like this...' and then share from that authentic place.
I love this aspect of my work, and it is an absolute take-my-breath-away, heart-expanding privilege for me to be part of anyone's creative journey in this way.

in our own words
A fantastic collaboration with the gorgeous 3rd Space crew, and sponsored by Stroud Arts Festival.
We kicked off at the Museum in the Park, and after some wonderful wordy workshops, the 3rd Space poets took to the stage, sharing their incredible work before an invited audience as part of the festival.

You can hear a recording, kindly sponsored by the lovely people at MMOUK, here!

A: Magic, that's what!
This fabulous film was created in a single day by young people from the Gloucestershire Climate Change Group.
It was shown as part of the 2024 Folk For Folk exhibition sponsored by the Canals and Rivers Trust.

I'm so happy to have been part of this wonderful collaboration alongside Polly and Ian from Creative Sustainability CIC!
play on words: a 30-day adventure
It was time to say a deeper YES to myself and my creativity, and I thought I'd do that by turning up every day to write a fresh new poem, perform it, and post it—as you do. This was the result.
​
There are poems for every occasion in this collection, from feeling scared to begin something, to celebrating what you love, to those times when everything seems to be falling apart—with plenty of stops for walks, songs in Hebrew, and ice cream along the way.
Join me on my 30-Day adventure into words, creativity and life itself!
Impactful, purpose-driven Content
for conscious businesses
brand voice development - web copy - articles & Blogs - eBooks
We all recognise an AI-generated piece a mile away—technically accurate maybe, but failing to move us on any human level. I truly believe ChatGPT has its place, but copywriting with soul and real integrity is something it has yet to deliver.
I communicate what matters to you in a voice that is authentic to your brand, ensuring that you connect deeply with your audience and offer your clients real value, support and inspiration.
​
I create powerful content that is fresh, compelling and purpose-driven, aligned to the values of your conscious business. Contact me here to book a discovery call and let's see if we'd like to work together.

Play the game: making the most
of your one wild and precious life
I began writing this for the young people I was working with at the time who were saying, 'Yeah, but if Life really is a game, then how come I'm not having any fun?!'
​
Life then decided to have a little fun with me, and two lovely children later, I decided it was time to finish it. Nine months later, it was done, and it's full of all the best things I know to support us in living the life we came here to live, with as much ease, lightness and fun along the way.
​
Written for teenagers, this is the book I wish someone had handed to me, and is really for us all, at any age or stage of life.
