In 2019, she was shortlisted in the top five for the BBC Young Writers’ Award.  More recently, they were highly commended in the Hammond House International Literary Prize (2024) and placed second in the Red Shed Poetry Competition (2025).

She forayed into music-making with the original riot grrrl EP about foraging, ‘Dog Vomit Slime Mould’ (D.V.S.M, 2023), as well as expanding her relationship between poetry and sound. During her time in Leeds, she has collaborated with musicians such as Ferg’s Imaginary Big Band, Vipertime and Skwid Ink.
