I am a performer and writer. I grew up in Seoul and in Birmingham, and now live and work in London. I’m developing my first solo show: a playful and political choose-your-own adventure story about a woman fighting to reclaim her narrative and identity. In 2020, I was part of the Online Solo Show Creation Lab by Haley McGee (creator of Ex-Boyfriend Yard Sale). In 2021, I joined New Earth Theatre Performers Academy South. I’ve been inspired by my mentor, Sabrina Mahfouz, to pursue writing and performing political feminist work. I’m also writing a TV pilot and a science theatre show for families.
