About

Digital

I’ve worked for the French Embassy in London since 2015 and have created digital content on everything from the election of Emmanuel Macron, to the death of HM The Queen. I have also produced videos for clients including the National Grid, Groupe Bayard, Central School of Speech and Drama, and social media influencer CryptoJoe.


Prior to this I worked in editorial, first for French publisher Bayard in Paris and then for The Chelsea Magazine Company. Past freelance clients include Future Publishing.

Theatre

As a theatre maker, I’ve made work at the White Bear Theatre, Kennington; The Bread & Roses Theatre, Clapham; and Brighton Fringe, among others.

I’ve assistant directed on productions at ArtsEd and the British American Drama Academy.

Education

I have a BA Honours from Durham University in French and German and a PG certificate in journalism from the London College of Communication.

I am currently studying part-time on the MA Actor Training & Coaching course at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.

I live in Sussex.
