Short Bio

Currently reading for a MA in Contemporary Art History at Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam. Previously graduated with a MFA in Contemporary Curating from Manchester School of Art (2016-18) and spent 6 months working as curatorial trainee at Foam Photography Museum, Amsterdam. In 2019, I started my own making practice (@textpresso) in which I engage with experimental poetry using my typewriter(s) as medium.
