I tell stories shaped by race, identity and belonging — exploring how we live, love and find home. I began with a blog, then went on to write opinion pieces for newspapers and magazines including The Independent and The Guardian, and have appeared on BBC and Sky News. I was awarded an MBE for services to diversity through literature for my book Forced Out (Granta), shortlisted for the Polari Prize, about my time as a detective in Greater Manchester Police and the Metropolitan Police. I also contributed to Still Breathing: 100 Black Voices on Racism (HarperCollins). I’m currently working on new books. I hold a Master’s in Writing from Regent’s University London and am a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. Alongside my writing, I speak and advise on housing, organisational culture, inclusion and social justice. Connect with me: Facebook | Instagram | X
