Writer, translator, tutor & communications professional
About Me
I'm currently studying an MA in Creative Writing (Prose Fiction) with a Bright Futures Scholarship at UEA, the UK's oldest creative writing programme.
​
My fiction has appeared in: Oxford Failed Novelists Society's 'Failed Anthology', (mic)ro(mic), Flash Flood, Bending Genres, Riggwelter, Writers Resist, Nightingale & Sparrow and [kon] paper. I won a DAAD prize for creative writing in German, and co-organised two informal writing groups in Berlin. I was also commissioned to write a short story for the Sci-Fi Economics Lab, and had another story shortlisted for the Hammond House International Literary Prize 2022.
​
I was born in Oxford but lived in Berlin until 2024, when I gained German citizenship. I have mostly worked in communications for non-profits, most recently the humanitarian NGO SOS Humanity, including a mission in the Mediterranean on board the rescue ship Humanity 1.
​
Besides writing, I can be found singing choral music, searching for the perfect full English breakfast, (still) moaning about Brexit or exploring abandoned buildings.
​
I'm currently working on short stories and the draft of a novel.
