My poetry has been published in The Wolf, Pen Pusher, Magma, Rising, on Peony Moon, the hub, the poem.com and anthologised in City State: The New London Poetry and Lung Jazz: Young British Poets. My short story, Latissimus Dorsi, was long-listed for Lightship International Short Story Prize and Hyperpsychreality Syndrome was published as a downloadable audiobook on iTunes. I was nominated for the Arts Foundation Prize for Poetry in 2011 and short listed for a Society of Authors Eric Gregory Award in 2009. I also won an Arts and Humanities Research Council Scholarship in the same year. My first collection of poems was published by Donut Press in 2011. I gained a Creative Writing BA and MA from Brunel University, and am now working towards a PhD.
