About

I am a writer, essayist, and photographer based in Johannesburg, South Africa, exploring and unpacking the world we live in.

I believe writing, poetry, and photography are powerful ways to help us think more critically and see with greater clarity.

My work delves into diverse themes – from personal essays and poetry capturing fleeting moments, to critical analyses of politics, economics, and social dynamics.

Driven by curiosity, I aim to create work that sparks dialogue and encourages deeper reflection.

Whether you're drawn to critical thought, poetic expression, or visual stories, I hope you find something here that resonates or challenges you.
