I’m an award-winning playwright from East Anglia. Described as ‘bold, unflinching and impossible to ignore’, my first play, PATTERNS, was the recipient of the Michael Ross Award from RADA for the Academy’s Most Promising Writer, has since been shortlisted for Theatre503’s International Playwrighting Prize and secured a Harold Hyam Wingate Scholarship with the Arvon Foundation. I’ve since gained places on development programmes with the BFI, Soho Theatre, Leicester Curve, NSDF and Mercury Theatre – where I wrote my second play, I REALLY DO THINK THIS WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. Selected as the Mercury’s inaugural Page to Stage Original, CHANGE YOUR LIFE is a one-woman cat-fight against Rich Quick schemes and transferred to Edinburgh Fringe as one of the Pleasance’s National Partnership shows. The show received a wealth of 4 and 5 star reviews, was nominated for The Stage Innovation Award, the Stagey Placey’s Edinburgh Award, Off-West End Adopt a Playwright Award, Women in Theatre Award and named in Best of Edinburgh listings for the Pleasance, Playbill and The Scotsman.
 Edinburgh has been a welcome springboard for my career and I feel incredibly fortunate to have received seed commissions to develop new work with Attic and Landmark Theatres as well as continuing my Boundless Accelerator Awarded folk horror, Houses of Sand, with the support of New Perspectives.
In addition to theatre, I also write for the screen. My work has featured on BBC Introducing as well as being shortlisted for the BBC Writersroom, Wildseed Studios Talent to Watch and ITV Original Voices. I also have several TV Pilots in development.
