Sheffield based Director/Producer, also specialising in narrative scriptwriting & development, videography, editing & many other areas of production.

Nominated for Best New Filmmaker at IMDB's 2019 Awards, Danny Boyle's Shuffle Film Festival & Cinemagic 2017 for my short film that was funded and distributed by Channel 4's 'Random Acts'. My latest short film Re•displacement won Best UK Short at Nottingham Film Festival & I'm currently developing two short films with British Film Institute for production in 2020.

I have a strong ability to research subjects or brand values to find gripping narratives to be developed. A strong creative vision both cinematographically and in the edit, with experience with editing packages (Final Cut Pro, Adobe Suite) and a range of broadcast quality cameras - with experience filming and editing broadcast and digital content for Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen.

I have excellent people skills with experience location scouting, talent/crew casting, coordinating budgets & schedules, social media marketing. Also setting up location shoots across multiple locations, days and in challenging conditions.
