I’m an art & culture writer from London. I’m drawn to the tensions and collective emotions that perhaps we’re all feeling, but haven’t given words to yet. I’m also interested in authentic and genuine exhibition reviews, news coverage, and interviews.
I’m a Contributing Writer for FAD Magazine. I was previously Contributing Editor for the Art of Conversations and I was on the Editorial Board at South London Gallery.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out for any art & culture writing or research commissions, no ask is too small.
