She has twice been listed as one of Code Hospitality's 100 Most Influential Women in Hospitality and was nominated for People's Choice Person of the Year at the Be Inclusive Hospitality Spotlight Awards in 2022. Her food and culture articles have been published in Vittles and South China Morning Post, and her chapter on 'The Community Centre' was published in London Feeds Itself, the food writing anthology - currently on its second edition - that Jonathan Nunn edited, alongside voices such as Claudia Roden, Ruby Tandoh and Jeremy Corbyn. She has done talks for the British Library Food Season, lectured at SOAS Food Studies department, taken part in panels and events with BFI, MilkTeaFilms and Southbank Centre, as well as a writing collaboration with the Horniman Museum.
