Profile

My professional creative journey began in theatre but I have since worked for BBC TV drama and community arts organisations. I was the director of Arts Council England’s decibel programme for five years and I set up the culture service for the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.

I am thrilled to be working with People’s Palace Projects and the BFI to deliver the Museum of Colour and will be using my Artists Research Fellowship to pursue a long held research interest. I write and am passionate about tennis (watching not playing), music, television drama and film.

Work

I am in love with creativity and empowering people to do their best. I often work with small organisations doing big things and people at personal and career related crossroads. To find out more about this area of work email info@bladeofgrass.co.uk.
