Writing
Fiction
I have extensive experience writing for the stage and for young audiences, including:
-
adaptations and historical fiction (Sir Philip Pullman's The Ruby in the Smoke and Lauren Child's Ruby Redfort)
-
work accessible for all audiences (including Sleepless Theatre's Masha and the Firebird)
-
teaching practical skills through high adventure (Girl Guides vs Aliens)
If you'd like examples of my work or to discuss a project please get in touch, I'd love to work with you!

Workshops
I have extensive experience running workshops for KS2-KS5, including:
Scriptwriting
Outdoor Skills
Codebreaking
Maths and Reasoning for 11+ Entrance Exams
My workshops are based around delivering useful information in an interactive and story-based style. My aim is to make the material easy to remember and use in practical settings (in a tent, mid-spy mission or in an exam or writing session)

Mentoring
I'm passionate about supporting new writers and theatremakers, focusing on access to the creative industries and finding creators the community they need.
