I am a writer, poet, and researcher working at the intersections of Surrealism, visual poetics, and therapeutic practice.

My work moves across forms—novels, poetry, essays, films, and collaborative projects—always circling the question of how imagination unsettles the ordinary and opens the world anew.

I completed a practice-led PhD at the University of Salford in 2022. Its creative outcome was The Cinema Beneath the Lake, now published by Orbis Tertius Press (Canada, 2025). My research explored Surrealism, with a particular emphasis on the prose writing of surrealist women, the “everyday marvellous,” and the potential of creative practice as a site of transformation.

My writing has appeared in numerous journals and anthologies, and I have published collections of poetry, essays, and experimental texts. I have also produced work for radio, television, and film — including three BBC-broadcast radio plays and a range of scripts that move between genre and experiment.

I have taught creative writing and scriptwriting at undergraduate and postgraduate level, and I collaborate with artists, poets, and communities on projects exploring creativity as both a personal and collective resource.
