I joined Metal back in the chaos that was 2020 after graduating from University of Leeds with an MA in Corporate Communications, Marketing and Public Relations. I was born and raised in Leeds, but my heritage is Caribbean, in Antigua, Dominica and Nevis. I’ve always loved art and creativity, especially visual and performance. When I’m not working on Metal’s socials, I’m running my own as a spoken word artist, writer, and anti-racist advocate. You can usually find me performing my angry poetry about the world to anyone that will listen. Some books I’ve read recently and really enjoyed are ‘These Impossible Things’ by Salma El-Wardany, ‘People Person’ by Candice Carty-Williams and ‘Yellowface’ by Rebecca F. Kuang.
