Events

A decade-plus in live events. Boomtown Fair, Balter Festival, immersive theatre. Looking for producing, creative direction and festival work.

I'm a multidisciplinary creative based in Brighton with a background in Music and Visual Arts. I've managed a theatre venue, performed at festivals, built one of Brighton's largest community groups, and designed book covers that end up on actual shelves.

The throughline — if there is one — is that I like making things that feel like they couldn't have been made by anyone else.

Book cover clients have come back for social media management and ongoing content creation. That's the kind of working relationship I'm looking for more of.
