Sometimes I appear in the media mostly to talk about gendered violence. I sometimes get asked to speak, lecture and chair events, panels, and talks, which I enjoy.
I’ve also been writing for music, politics and culture outlets on music, nightlife and liberation, social movements, feminism, Wales, outsider sounds, cities &c since 2010.
