My short fiction has been shortlisted for the Galley Beggar Short Story Prize (2021) and The White Review Short Story Prize (2017). It’s also appeared in The Cincinnati Review and been named an “Other Distinguished Story” in The Best American Short Stories 2021.

I have an MA with Distinction in Creative Writing Prose Fiction from the University of East Anglia, where I received the David Higham Award. I was mentored by Amy Sackville through the National Centre for Writing’s Escalator scheme.

I have a BA in history, summa cum laude, from Bryn Mawr and spent a year studying modern history at Pembroke College, Oxford.

I’m American and British. I grew up in Ohio and now live in South London with my partner and our two daughters. I work as a copywriter, primarily for the energy and travel sectors.
