I am interested in people and places and the stories they have to tell. I record sounds and voices, take pictures and walk. And chat. Lots of chatting.

I listen deeply too mind you. I try and spotlight the overlooked. I put together a new story for people to experience - it might be through a performance, text, film, audio walk, installation - or whatever works. My previous work includes telling the stories of hospital wards, closed rural schools, football fans, friendship, climate change and snack bars.

I started my career with the BBC Capture Wales team, and that experience, and the phenomenal people I worked alongside, continues to shape my practice, ethics and my love of driving a white transit van. Here’s what they’re up to now: Daniel Meadows, Karen Lewis, Gilly Adams, Carwyn Evans, Huw Davies, (the original) Lisa Jones, Gareth Morlais, Mandy Rose - artists, mentors and friends.

From there I worked at the University of South Wales and was supported to study an MA in performance.

For ten years I worked under the name Storyworks on diverse projects and developed the story shop model and worked for and with excellent organisations and people - but then Covid hit and my brilliant sister died and, well, things fell apart. The company went into liquidation in February 2023 and I was so full of shame and grief that I wanted to hide. I tried to start again - I considered so many things and applied for jobs and courses…but in the end I realised that working with stories was too important to me.

I have slowly built up my confidence and resilience to want to show my face (and work) again. I am now working part time with the excellent team at Immersive Arts and WMC and also working regularly with Making Sense, Theatre Alibi and Grow Llangollen. I know that’s quite a lot of information, some would say too much…and if you got this far, well done! Here is an Animal Video.

I do speak and work in Welsh too, and I will make a version of this site in Welsh in the future.

I gave up social media a few years ago and I’m aware that makes connecting a little trickier, but honestly the space in my brain and day for watching snails and taking naps makes life so good. Feel free to ask me anything in an email.
