About Me: I started writing seriously five years ago. In 2020 I reached the shortlist of the Kenneth Brannagh New Drama Award at the Windsor Fringe Festival and the Sphinx Theatre Female Playwright Programme both with my play Blood’s Thicker. During lockdown I wrote two short monologues for Grin Theatre’s LGBTQ Rainbow Monologues, which can be seen on their You Tube Channel.  And in 2021 Make It Write Productions compiled an audio showcase of my work which can be heard on their You Tube Channel. In 2020/21 I completed the Liverpool Royal Court Playwrights Programme, and an excerpt of my play Sex Machine had a rehearsed reading at the Royal Court studio in March 2021. I the completed the Everyman Playwrights Programme in 2022. In April 2022 my short play Twisted Sister was performed as part of Seven Slices a showcase of new writing produced by MIW at Hope St Theatre. Also, in 2022 my short play A Tipsy Christmas Fairy Tale was chosen to be in Stocking Fillers the Christmas show at the Liverpool Royal Court studio. Blood’s Thicker was staged at The Casa in June 2023 and was well received by the audience and reviewers. I was also one of the writers who created Park Life another MIW production that which was staged at The Casa in May and October 2023. The actor for my character in this play won the Best Comedy Role at the Liverpool Fringe festival. In September 2023 I won the New Writing North, Channel 4 Writing for Television Award, Lime Pictures. I have just completed a spec script for the first episode of a six part thriller.
