I've spent a number of years living and working in Africa.
I've been interested in photographing and writing about the continent and the contemporary issues facing its peoples, as well as African music and arts.
Now based in the UK I'm still using photography, writing and audio to look at similar issues and stories here.
I also facilitate photography, creative writing and digital storytelling workshops for children and young people in the UK and abroad.
