Profile
About
I’m Atlanta – not from Atlanta, nor have I ever been! I grew up in South London in a lively Trinidadian family, and with a background in Theatre, I developed a passion for storytelling. Today, I channel that passion through portraiture, visual journalism, and creative direction. My work explores themes of community, ethnicity, and identity, capturing authentic and impactful narratives. I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with organisations like the Museum of Youth Culture, MUF Architects, and the Roundhouse, contributing to exhibitions, online features, and social media campaigns. I’m eager to bring my creative energy, passion, and fresh perspective to an art direction role, where I can contribute to campaigns and continue learning and growing in the industry.
