I write dark satirical comedies on the activities of transglobal corporations and supranational institutions, which often hide  unsavoury practices  within the complex networks of offshore global supply chains. I reveal the suffering caused by unjust land grabs for tourism, the extraction and manufacturing atrocities in the production of mobile phones, and the ghouls who converge around natural disasters. My work is published by Random House. My first novel was a finalist for the Commonwealth Writers' Prize. 

 

I have worked as a producer and director in the film and television industry for over 20 years and have lived around the world most of my life. During this time, I also lectured at universities and art colleges in the UK and Canada.

​

I am completing a doctoral degree at the University of London on satire's deployment of narcissistic communication tactics as a counterintuitive move to attack transnational institutions through comedic critique. I have also completed MA degrees in African Art (SOAS, University of London) and Film & TV Studies (University of Westminster).

​

My artistic work is more personal, and focuses on trauma and abuse, with a similar link to pathological narcsissim. I have exhibited or presented at Tate Britain, the ICA, Royal Festival Hall, Commonwealth Institute, SOAS University of London, the Luminato Festival, Oxford University, among others.
