I tell medieval stories the way they were meant to be told: out loud, up close and impossible to ignore.
From podcast scripts and blog posts to stage shows and workshops, my work brings to life medieval texts that were never meant to sit quietly on a shelf. Drawing on years of academic research and live performance, my storytelling blends sharp historical insight with humour, empathy, and just the historically accurate amount of chaos.
Alongside tales of chivalry, honour and adventure, I bring to my audiences stories that feel uncannily current. My translations stay true to the spirit and voice of the original texts, offering an experience that’s immersive and unexpectedly familiar.
I’ve also been exploring lesser-known folktales from Greece and the Balkans — stories rarely translated into English, and almost never staged. These tales, rich in humour, horror and folk wisdom, deserve a wider audience. I’m working to bring them into performance, with sensitivity to their cultural roots and an eye toward global storytelling.
Next to all that, I run workshops on storytelling, medieval culture, and the art of bringing “unapproachable” heritage to life.

Reviews
“…a collection of stories extracted from a medieval manuscript, stored in the Hunterian collection at the University of Glasgow, was converted into a visual and auditory spectacle that feels warm, pleasant and transfixing”
The Student on Fool for Love
“It offers an insight into the construction of stories and the varied nature of a profession many have a stereotyped image […] it’s a promising and worthwhile start to the preservation of folklore, and a fitting way to open conversation to the advancement of the craft.”
Dominic Corr on Untellable Tales
