WRITER PERFORMER POET ORAL HISTORIES INTERVIEWER & RESEARCHER DRAMA WORKSHOP FACILITATOR

Greetings Everyone, I hope I find you all well.

My career path is that of an early-in-career writer for stage, screen, radio, audio/podcast.
I am currently motivated to progress to an emerging writer with the aim of developing my creative writing through autobiographical/biographical exploration and living archives. My focus is an interest in black African-Caribbean British women over 50s and life and career progression
and barriers to achievement and progression through marginalised and mainstream contexts.
