Poet
In 2022, I published ‘Woman of Nature’—a poetry collection exploring the grit and grace of womanhood—and the powerful healing we can all find when we live a life rooted resolutely in the earth.
My poetry has been exhibited at the Brighton Festival, and I’ve performed at various venues across the city. I also co-organised a series of charity poetry evenings for LUSH, and in 2024, created my own poetry and music event, A Gathering of Witches.
Above all else, poetry is a way for me to connect deeper with myself, and the world around me—and in sharing it, encouraging others to do the same.
In 2024, I was awarded an artist bursary by Changing Chalk—a landscape-scale initiative led by the National Trust in partnership with Writing our Legacy, to connect nature, people & heritage to the South Downs, Sussex.
The bursary facilitated the creation of ‘Home, Made; A Poet’s Pilgrimage Through The South Downs Way’—a poetry cycle that traverses both a physical, and psycho-spiritual landscape. Six locations in the South Downs become six psychological landmarks of blossoming spiritual growth and personal rebirth.
Paving a journey from separation to belonging, force to flow, ego to soul—ultimately, this cycle encourages readers to see nature as both an internal and external force, and to feel the power of nature to heal, inspire, and create meaning.
The project is available to read for free at the link below.

Author
I have written for various publications and anthologies—from non-fiction to poetry. In 2024, I was commissioned to write for one of my favourite magazines, Resurgence & Ecologist, where I discussed my nature philosophy, and later spoke at their annual festival.
I am currently working on my first non-fiction book, ‘Harmonious Nature - how returning to the earth can heal us, and the world’—a personal growth book that outlines my own quest to return to nature, interwoven with practical wisdom and guidance from the earth.
If you’re an agent or publisher interested in my work, please feel free to get in touch! I’d love to hear from you.
Harmonious Nature, excerpt
“The way the sun energises us; the way the night resets us, brings us to rest. The way we, too, change with the seasons—the way we bud, bloom, and die unto ourselves, again and again.
We are pulled irrevocably into the rhythms of nature—just like the tides are moved by the moon. And no matter what we do, we cannot—must not—sever that cord.”

Commissions
You can commission me to write poetry, articles, essays on nature, spirituality, eco-feminism, healing, creativity… or anything else you’d like to have my perspective on! I’m open to ideas, just get in touch with yours.
Editing
I can help you edit your poetry, with attention to flow, form, storytelling, and curation (if working on a collection). Affordable packages are available—I’m keen to make poetry accessible.
In Person Events (UK)
You can book me for poetry sets, speaking gigs, and I also love delivering writing workshops. I’m based in Brighton UK, so events in the South East / London are my preference but still get in touch if you’re based elsewhere!
