I am an access-first arts producer, curator and project manager with a passion for amplifying stories about what it means to be human.

My work

I am a curator, creative producer & project manager with over 20 years' experience delivering collaborative cultural programmes and projects across museums, galleries, higher education and the visual arts sector. I am experienced in coordinating complex partnerships, managing multi-strand projects, producing and curating exhibitions, displays, and events, commissioning artists and specialist contractors, overseeing project budgets, and embedding accessibility and inclusive practice. I have a track record of delivering large and small-scale cultural programmes, supporting organisational learning, and sharing knowledge through sector events, publications and professional networks. My transdisciplinary practice means that I bring an open, curious mind & a flair for working with people from a variety of perspectives.

Since 2003 I have produced and delivered interdisciplinary exhibitions and public engagement projects, often bringing together art, the humanities and science for museums, galleries, and higher education institutions. My work embraces researching, curating, producing and delivering exhibitions, displays, public events and writing that aims to engage audiences with human stories - especially those that are marginalised or erased. In recent years my work has focussed on how to make inclusive and equitable exhibitions, which includes overseeing the production of audio described tours, BSL tours, Visual Stories and Easy Read resources.

My commitment to social, racial and environmental justice and equity are core values informing everything I do. I bring an anti-racist & anti-ableist lens to my practice, and continuously hold myself accountable for these approaches. I am committed to an access-first approach, which means embedding access and inclusive practice from the outset of projects, rather than as an ‘add-on’ later in the process. I am currently part-time co-project manager of the Accentuate programme delivered by Screen South, which challenges perceptions of disability by providing life-changing opportunities for Deaf and disabled people to participate and lead within the cultural sector.
