I’m a freelance journalist and write mainly about Jewish arts and culture. I am a regular contributor to The Times and The Jewish Chronicle. My work has also appeared in the FT Life & Arts, The Guardian, The Times of Israel, the TLS and other publications.

I have an MA in World Cinema from Birkbeck, University of London (2012-2014) where I specialised in Israeli film.

Prior to freelance writing, I was submissions editor for Haus Publishing but also worked independently with writers.

I have edited two published books: From the Edge of the World (Vallentine Mitchell, 2003), a compilation of letters and stories by Jewish refugees and The Sea of Azov (Five Leaves, 2009), a collection of short stories, published in association with the charity World Jewish Relief (WJR).
