I am an arts organiser based in London and South Wales. I lead walks and workshops which use foraged organic matter as tools and materials for art making. I have worked with various arts organisations and community projects including Hart Club, Turf Projects, Deptford X and Glengall Wharf Community Garden.  

I am interested in alternative art education and ecosystems as models for human collaboration. My projects involve walking and storytelling to explore our often overlooked entanglements with non-human beings. 

Alongside freelance work organising workshops and exhibitions, I work at the Royal College of Art and the Barbican Centre. I was previously Gallery Manager at Mimosa House. 

I studied MA Contemporary Art Theory at Goldsmiths, University of London. My theisis examined the human microbiome and how this troubles human and animal distinctions, urging a rethinking of humans as multispecies environments.
