Intimacy Coordination, Consent Choreography & Embodied Practice

I bring a trauma-informed, body-centred approach to intimacy coordination across film, television, theatre, and live performance.

With over a decade of international performance experience and doctoral research in care, connection, and shared intimacy in contemporary performance, I specialise in creating ethical, collaborative processes where artists can work safely, clearly, and with creative integrity. I approach intimate storytelling with an awareness of how race, culture, gender, and sexuality shape the body in performance. My work seeks to create processes that are clear, consent-led, and grounded in mutual respect.

My practice bridges rigorous consent frameworks with deep embodied knowledge of voice, movement, and ensemble dynamics.
