Hello! I'm IJ!

I'm Mint Creative's resident poet and all around artist-of-all-trades. If I'm not writing, I'm doodling, and if I'm not doodling, I'm usually helping Owen with whatever project is coming down the pipeline.

My writing is nearly always concerned with history and hauntology - how our past and future linger in our present (which isnt really ever present). I got my Creative Writing degree from Strathclyde in 2022, and went into the boring world of desk job, meaning my specialist skills also include computer.

I'll mainly be at Mint helping out the photography lot, writing nonsense or looking busy. Mint is such an amazing opportunity for creatives to get together, come up with ideas and make something bigger - and it'll be absolutely Mint.
