About me

I’m a neurodiverse writer based between LA and London. I write about intelligent, difficult (and probably neurodiverse) women fighting to live fully-realised lives. I was born in the UK but have Polish heritage so I spent my childhood vacationing in communist Warsaw where I honed my impressive queuing skills.  

As a playwright, my work has been supported and developed by The National Theatre Studio, Royal Shakespeare Company, The Orange Tree, Sphinx, Arts Council England, The Peggy Ramsay Foundation, The Orchard Project, The Studios Key West and OffWestEnd.com. My play Intelligence about the computer pioneer Ada Lovelace and the gender bias encoded in AI won the 2024 Women’s Prize for Playwriting and is currently in development with Paines Plough and Ellie Keel Productions. My other plays include S-27 (Winner iceandfiire/Amnesty Interational Protect the Human Playwriting Competition) and Waiting for Romeo (Winner Best Play (Small Venue), Ekin Yazin Dostları Theatre Awards).

My book on playwriting, The Contemporary Political Play is published by Methuen Drama.

As a screenwriter, I trained on the certificate course at NFTS and UCLA TFT’s Professional Program. I recently completed Channel 4’s 4Screenwriting programme.

My TV pilot, Vindication, which charts the early life of the original badass feminist Mary Wollstonecraft placed as a semifinalist at the Austin Film Festival. I was a finalist for Stowe Story Lab’s Law Firm of Stacey A. Davis Fellowship and have participated in their Narrative Lab. Other accolades to date include semifinal/shortlist placements for the both the Writers’ Lab US and UK & Europe, Respectability Lab, Studio21 Drama Series Script Competition, ITV Disabled Writers’ Scheme and BBC Writersroom Open Call 2024.

As an audio writer, I regularly write episodes of Dr Who for Big Finish where I specialise in stories featuring alien invasions in historical settings and robots, and sometimes both.

I was an associate artist for over four years with Headlong, where I led their digital strategy and curated a range of digital theatrical experiences including game, app and installations.

Currently seeking both UK and US representation.
