I am a socially engaged artist, arts-based researcher and illustrator. I work alongside people who find themselves on the margins for one reason or another, and issues of belonging, place and cultural exchange are central to my practice. I design and offer creative interactions, inviting people to be part of an art process in a relaxed and expressive way.

I am in my third year of a PhD as part of the Postgraduate Research Programme in the College of Health and Social Sciences at UWE. My study builds on my professional practice and explores how relationally engaged arts-based methods can be developed to support minoritised children to express, reflect on, and amplify their lived experiences and perceptions.

I have recently co-produced and illustrated a book for children, Taking a closer look at Microfibres, in collaboration with colleagues from the Air Quality Management Resource Centre, the Science Communication Unit and the School of Education and Childhood, all at UWE.

I am currently co-authoring a Routledge monograph with the team from the Racialised Experiences Project: Education, Children & Trust (RESPECT). You can read about this and other projects under the heading Arts based research.
