I grew up in Salisbury and am now based in London & Amsterdam.

I am currently the Assistant Director to Ivo Van Hove on A Little Life, at The Harold Pinter Theatre.

I am Resident Director for Amsterdam on Stage, working in translation on immersive productions and am Associate Director of Bric a Brac, international Lecoq trained devising company.

As Resident Assistant Director at the Unicorn Theatre (2019/20), I worked on four multimedia shows that were form breaking and creatively ambitious adaptions and new writing young audiences.
