I am a linguist and multimedia journalist from the UK currently living in Berlin and working on material from previously unpublished projects. I grew up in a small town between London and Brighton and first started photographing when I was 16 years old.

My first real photographic project was born out of an experience with the Mongrel Mob in New Zealand, during a year of travel after graduating from sixth form. I lived with the gang for a total of four months and documented their everyday duties, challenges and successes. This exposure to how photography and documentation have the potential to open up worlds and gift you with the most enlightening and unexpected encounters changed my life completely.

I studied Arabic and German at Leeds University and since graduating have held positions in research, translation and advocacy/communications. My photographic work largely hinges on themes of nationalism, masculinity and protest, while placing particular weight on topics such as cultural motifs within tattoo culture and the rootedness of humans in the places they inhabit.
