About me
Theatre professional:I have been writing film and television scripts since I started University 7 years ago, where I graduated with a First in Creative Writing & Film Studies and a Merit in MA Screenwriting at Liverpool John Moores University. Since moving to London last year I have developed a love for theatre and have started writing for the stage as well as for screen, taking part in a monthly playwriting workshop at the Pleasance Theatre and entering various playwriting competitions and academies. I am also about to get my first writing credit on an American short film and work as a Creative Intern in Rocket Pictures, where I have learnt a lot about the development and production of feature films
Additional skills:
I write a lot, mainly scripts for film, TV and theatre. I am also a voluntary Script Reader at YouGoFar Productions and have previous script reading experience both at Rocket and LA Productions in Liverpool. I love to explore
Industry awards:
I was awarded a BAFTA scholarship for my Masters course, which was an invaluable experience and provided me with an industry mentor and a unique insight into the film and television industry.
My short script, Nice and Clean, reached the quarter finals of the 2015 Shore Scripts Short Screenwriting Competition.
