Her first few stories were distributed as hand-stitched art zines in aid of a mental health charity, and her style became known for its multi-layered narratives.



In 2017 she founded Orchids Lantern, a small independent press focusing on the metaphysical and visionary genre. She is the author of short story collection Fragments of Perception and a forthcoming series of novels inspired by VR therapy and the unconscious mind.
