I've been honing my musical skills, focusing on DJing since 2022. As a member of Sisu Crew, a community supporting women and non-binary DJs and producers, I've had the chance to play at festivals in London and across the UK, and landed my first radio residency with Threads Radio.
Threads Radio resident — my bi-monthly show Electric Relaxin’ on Threads radio is an hour segment focused on acid jazz, broken beat + funky house.
