Past Projects
A female and non-binary, immigrant-led theatre company amplifying the voices of historically marginalised global artists. From new writing nights to acclaimed anthologies, Global Voices Theatre championed decolonised practice, cross-border collaboration, and fresh international perspectives on British stages. The was established in 2018 and officially closed in 2025.
Innovator in Residence at the RCS
​
I was one of two Innovators in Residence at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in 2023-2024, supporting the launch of the Innovation Studio. I worked with Leonie Rae Grasson and the Knowledge Exchange team to offer outside perspectives, challenge assumptions, and shape new approaches to artist development and institutional experimentation.
.
Becoming […] is a series of co-created, site-specific residencies exploring identity and belonging through the voices of local first-generation migrants. From immersive gatherings to protest performances, each chapter - across the UK, Germany, Romania, and the Czech Republic – responded to its local context. Supported by Perform Europe in 2022, the series reimagined touring as locally relevant, rooted, collaborative, and politically engaged.

Sheffield Pioneers
In 2023, I joined the “Sheffield Pioneers”, a wonderful group of creative individuals with whom I embarked on a six-month peer-led learning marathon. Hosted by Stella McKenna this was rooted in the Huddlecraft methodology. This experience led me to reflect on the meaning of work in the creative industries and society at large. My journey ended with a public sharing where I performed the “Becoming British” monologue which eventually became this piece.
The Snake bites the Hardest when it knows it is Dying
​
This piece is a devised, documentary performance telling the true story of Dessislava Ivancheva and Biliana Petrova, two civil officials who dared to resist corrupt redevelopment in Sofia’s Mladost district. For denying developers access to green spaces, they became political scapegoats. Set in a private home, the show turns intimate space into a site of resistance, surveillance, and truth-telling.
With One Voice / Arts & Homelessness International
​
As Executive Producer at Arts & Homelessness International, I led fundraising and strategic development across global projects. I also designed and delivered sector training, supported organisational growth, and deepened international partnerships focused on creativity as a tool for social change. In the picture, you can see the Doodle of Ducie street in Manchester which was made with 40 people who are or have been homeless.
The People’s Tribunal On Crimes of Aggression: Afghanistan Series
​​In summer 2021 I shadowed BÉZNÄ‚ Theatre as Assistant Director on their directional artistic tribunal built and run by impacted communities. It was a great insight into some of the company’s process around gathering interviews, dramaturgy and walking the line between fictional and real life accounts.
Seeds: The round Shape of all Things Red
In 2019 I directed the Arcola Theatre’s Women Group. I worked with 20 other women from all walks of life (some professionally trained and others not) to create a devised show based on mythological stories from around the world. Through this lens we explored our lived experiences and interrogated the stories that feed our beliefs of who we are/should be.
Between 2014 and 2017, I was part of The Complete Freedom of Truth (TCFT), a residential-style festival that evolved into a transnational, youth-led network of artists, activists, and change-makers. I participated in TCFT editions across the UK, Bosnia and Italy, taking on a range of roles from assistant producer to performance-maker, and eventually co-artistic director, supporting over 150 young people from 11 countries.

CASA Latin American Theatre Festival
​
From 2012 to 2016, I was part of the core team at CASA Festival, the UK’s only festival dedicated to Latin American theatre. First as Festival Administrator and then Producer, I oversaw all aspects of delivery and programming alongside then Artistic Director Daniel Goldman leading a team of 50 across venues Rich Mix and the Barbican Centre.
