Storyworlds for Games, XR, and Hybrid Interactive Media

I am a narrative architect and experience designer in London.

Through my company Studio Zero and in collaboration with video game and XR studios, I create interactive worlds that blend contemporary and ancient approaches to story across disciplines and cultures, inviting audiences to imagine new futures through experiences that connect, reveal and transform.

My background in interactive digital art and theatre includes projects for Berlin’s Volksbühne, London’s Young Vic, Camden People’s Theatre, Edinburgh Festival and the Royal Opera House. Awards include an AHRC Scholarship, Kone Foundation Saari Fellowship, and a National Theatre Playwriting Bursary. In 2024, I joined Games London’s UK government-backed Gamechanger accelerator. I am based at Somerset House, where I am a founding member of the Arts and Tech Network.

My approach to story is shaped by experience as a reportage and city journalist documenting a changing world at street level for outlets in Europe, the US, and the Middle East, including The Guardian, BBC, Politico, ARTnews, and Palestine Note. I have taught interactive narrative design at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, Austrian Cultural Forum and London Film Academy, and published academic papers on emergent narrative aesthetics.
