I am a UK-based artist, photographer and filmmaker. I have my own independent creative practice and regularly develop projects with diverse communities to record and celebrate life stories and identity. These projects feature events, training opportunities, exhibitions and publications.
I am passionate about supporting people to develop their creative and technical skills. I offer different kinds of creative and practical workshops around photography, oral history and filmmaking. My upcoming workshops can be booked here.
I offer coaching, mentoring and consultancy for artists, photographers and cultural workers, as well as small organisations. I work with individuals to support them to overcome obstacles and achieve their own particular goals. I work with organisations to help design, fundraise for and deliver different engagement projects.
I set up the Living Memory Project CIC which specialises in delivering community-based projects that engage with aspects of heritage, life story and the importance of belonging.
My website presents some of my artworks and projects from the last couple of decades. You can read more about my background and also get in touch with me.
