I am a multi-disciplinary artist that likes to express my views through live art, film & theatre using poetry, breakdancing & comedy. I received a nomination for The Critic’s Circle National Dance Awards 2021 under the Emerging Artist category. My latest award was winning Europe’s biggest drag king competition Man Up! 2023 with my new drag king persona, Mr IPM – International Pussy Magnet.
Throughout my developing career, I have worked with a variety of artists such as, Steve McQueen, playwright Roy Williams, Company 3, Coral Messam & Freddie Opoku-Addaie, just to name a few.
My debut show Just Another Day and Night, received a 4 star review from The Guardian and has been shown at Ovalhouse, The Lowry, & The Place amongst other venues across London.

I really enjoy creating work that unites a desire for introspection within the audience and themselves, but through that a celebration of individuality should reign supreme.
