I regularly work as an Audio Description Consultant and Access Advisor for various projects including theatre and circus productions, film, exhibitions, events and more.
As a visually impaired artist and audience member, I am passionate about creating the best audio description possible for all productions. I am always interested in ways to enhance the creativity of audio description and for accessibility to work as in integral part of the creative process.
My years of experience were enhanced in 2021, when I was awarded a Jerwood Live Work Fund to continue and develop research into creative audio description for physical art
