A funeral is the last true story we tell about someone. I write and deliver that story with care, so the person you love is unmistakably there in every word.
I have spent over 25 years in the classroom teaching drama — a life focused on how words are written, shaped, and spoken so that a room truly feels them. A funeral asks for exactly that care. The spoken word, done well, can hold a grieving room together and let a single life be seen clearly. There is no template for a person, so every tribute I write begins with a blank page and your memories.
I became a celebrant following the death of my Grandfather in 2024. I felt this calling following the way that our celebrant cared for and sensitively supported our family, and wish to be able to support other families during the most difficult times.
Creativity has always been at the heart of who I am. Outside of my work as a celebrant, I have a lifelong passion for theatre and the arts, and I enjoy writing poetry in my spare time. I am also a keen board gamer and miniature painter with an ever-growing collection, an enthusiastic cyclist and swimmer, and I love experimenting in the kitchen with new recipes and flavours. As a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ and recovery community, I believe in creating a welcoming and inclusive space for everyone.
Please do get in touch if I can help you to create a highly personal ceremony to remember your special loved one.
