ABOUT ME

I am an actor, broadcaster, and political journalist originally from Birmingham, UK. I graduated from Cambridge University in 2017 with a Classics degree before embarking on a career in the journalism industry and pursuing acting. I have recently been cast as Mrs Waterbury/Mother in a production of The Railway Children in Stratford upon Avon, which will show this winter. You can find my Spotlight link here. 

​

I have worked as a political reporter at PoliticsHome since February 2023, and you can find some of my work with them here. Before working at PoliticsHome, I worked at Yahoo News UK as their first political correspondent, my work for them can be found here. Before Yahoo News UK, I worked briefly as political correspondent at JOE.co.uk and spent several months as a freelance news reporter at EachOther. 

​

As well as print journalism, I am proficient in broadcast journalism - appearing regularly on shows like Politics Live to provide political analysis. I regularly do newspaper reviews for Times Radio, as well as providing political insight on other outlets including BBC radio shows and LBC. Other appearances include Sky News paper reviews, BBC One's Sunday Morning Live, The Jeremy Vine Show, and This Morning. You can find more about my broadcast experience here. 

​

I have a strong interest in documentary making, recording Black, Jewish And Proud for BBC World Service radio in 2021. I travelled to Israel for the documentary where I spoke to members of the Ethiopian Jewish community - the largest Black Jewish community in the world. I am keen to do more of this sort of work, and am open to opportunities in the field. 

​

As well as reporting and broadcast work, I have extensive experience in comment and opinion pieces - which includes writing for The Guardian, The Independent, Metro, and the Huffington Post. I have written about a variety of subjects including politics, race, class, and identity. 

​

While at university I served as president of the Cambridge University Student Union's Black and Minority Ethnic Campaign. I also co-founded the Benin Bronze Appreciation Committee which focused on repatriating the Benin Bronze Okukor at Jesus College, Cambridge. The campaign was successful, and the college announced its intentions to repatriate the Bronze last year.  Alongside this, I also co-founded the "Our Grade, Our Choice" campaign, which sought to let students "opt-in" to class list publication. The campaign was successful, and an opt-in system was adopted in 2018.
