Since April 2021 I have been contracted for a variety of comics in "Sensory: Life on the Spectrum"- organised by Bex Ollerton. "Sensory" is a comic anthology series featuring a variety of perspectives about the adult lives of autistic people. The comic content varies from highly emotional personal experiences all the way to resourceful and thoughtful data collection on the quality of life for autistic people.

"Sensory" was nominated for the 2022 Ringo award for Best Anthology as well as the 2023 Eisner award under the same category.
My contributions in "Sensory" tend to discuss the systematic plights of autistic people (especially autistic adults) in modern society- with an emphasis on lesser researched or discussed symptoms of autism spectrum disorder.

NO CHILDREN

"There's No Children in Hamelin" is my personal passion project. A grimdark retelling of The Pied Piper of Hamelin from the perspective of a medieval girl who is subjected to the Pied Pipers strange and fascinating musical experiments. "There's No Children in Hamelin" is an interactive story, with doors that open to reveal characters internal thoughts, pop-up diagrams of the locations they visit, and spinning dials that tell the time.
