I’m a freelance audio producer & journalist based in Cape Town.

I make audio documentaries on a range of subjects, but with a focus on memory and violence in South Africa – both personal and political. I also write about and produce features on contemporary South African art and artists.

Robben Island’s Hallelujah, my most recent feature about Handel’s famous chorus performed by a choir of political prisoners in the brutal apartheid prison, was a pick of the week in the UK’s Radio Times and is now available via BBC Radio 4.

My musical portrait titled Einstein Fix, made for BBC Radio 3 in collaboration with Einstein Mupalu and musician John Withers, was broadcast in September 2024 and reviewed in the Mail & Guardian.

Co-producer Bongani Kona and I won the inaugural Podcast Pitch at the 2023 Sheffield DocFest for our story Time, Paper, Bone, and premiered a 30-minute version of Time, Paper, Bone at the 2024 Sheffield DocFest.
