About Me
I am a writer, criminologist, and speaker , my work explores the lifelong consequences of medical harm, institutional authority, and the pursuit of justice. As a DES daughter exposed in utero to diethylstilbestrol, my life and work have been shaped by the devastating intergenerational effects of a medical experiment conducted without consent.
My memoir, A Life Lived Chronically, serves as a narrative exploration of this legacy, examining what it means to live in a body marked by systemic betrayal and inherited harm. Through my writing and public speaking, I give a voice to the silence surrounding DES, addressing the profound impacts on identity, health, and trust in institutional systems.
Bridging personal testimony with rigorous systemic critique, I also holds postgraduate qualifications in criminology and am currently completing a Professional Doctorate.
My research and professional practice focus on belief, digital rehabilitation, and post-carceral life. I am s the creator of the No Bars podcast and I work directly on accommodation and employment initiatives for prison leavers in the North of England.
Based in London, I regularly speak at academic and international conferences, working at the intersection of lived experience and justice to challenge the systems that move on while their consequences remain.
