Last year I did the Hackney 5K. This year I’ve somehow signed up for the Hackney Half on May 17th… not entirely sure how, but here we are.😅

I’m running for @macmillancancer it’s a charity that means a lot to me and to people very close to me. They’re there for people through some really difficult times, and I’d love to support that in any way I can.

If you’re able to donate, even a little, it would genuinely mean a lot. Link’s in my bio, and every penny goes straight to them 💚

And if not, please just pray for me 🙏 😅

Excited to share that I’m a Broadcast Hotshot 2023!

I’ve worked with amazing people @andypryorcasting & @utcartistmgmt who have guided me, allowing me to be creative and find myself in this industry.

This achievement reflects not just my efforts but also the great teams and mentors who have been part of my journey. “Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much!!

Honestly, I’m GASSED!! - currently looking at my bosses BAFTAs, thinking you’re next!

What an incredible night!!!

Talent Producing @comeddiekadi and friends for the second time was nothing short of phenomenal. To see Black culture, Black humour, and Black excellence filmed, celebrated, and centred for the @bbc is never something we take lightly. These opportunities don’t come as often as they should,which is exactly why, when they do, we make damn sure we deliver!

What started as Eddie’s vision to create real legacy and elevation for @bbc1xtraand the Black British comedy scene has grown into something truly powerful: mentorship, industry connection, and a full-scale comedy showcase on one of the most iconic stages in the countryhackney Empire for BBC One.

And there is truly nothing like watching your acts get their first TV credit and absolutely smash the hell out of the Hackney Empire stage. Seeing Diesel step into that moment with confidence, presence, and pure fire was everything this work is about - opportunity meeting preparation.

This wasn’t just a show. It was proof of what happens when culture is trusted, talent is nurtured, and Black voices are allowed to lead rather than ask for permission.

Black comedy has always been mainstream - it just hasn’t always been given the platform. Nights like this are about taking up space, holding it confidently, and making it impossible to ignore our brilliance.

Phenomenally proud of Eddie, the entire team, and every comedian who lit up that stage.

Wow, 2025… what a year. 🙌🏽

Thank you for all the lessons, the moments that pushed me, the surprises that made me smile, and the challenges that felt impossible at the time. Every single one of them taught me something about myself and made me stronger.💪🏽

2026, I’m ready for you. I want to grow, laugh harder, conquer more dreams, and just live fully fearless, grateful, and open to whatever comes my way.🔥🔥🔥

Here’s to a new year, new beginnings, and being the best version of ourselves.

The best way to predict the future is to create it.

Comedy is about risk. Management is about believing in risk-takers - because transformation only happens when you dare to leap & in that leap, laughter becomes legacy!

Last week, I attended an incredible networking event hosted by @thediversesquadat @spotlightuk – a space where diverse voices and people of color came together to connect, share, and thrive.

As the evening unfolded, one message resonated deeply: A diverse mix of voices leads to better discussions, decisions, and outcomes for everyone. but also Strength lies in differences, not in similarities.

It was inspiring to see so many brilliant minds come together, each bringing unique perspectives to the table.

Events like this remind us that collaboration and inclusivity create powerful opportunities for growth, innovation, and empowerment.

A huge thank you to the @thediversesquad for creating this amazing space. 🔥🔥🔥

Here’s to more events where we uplift, celebrate, and empower each other!
