About me
I'm an award winning director, writer, editor and photographer with 11 years industry experience, based in London.Over the past few years I have directed promotional and explainer films for the NSPCC, Build Africa, The Green Party, Schroders, Time to Change, Mencap and The Scout Association, amongst others.
My latest documentary for the Guardian, 'From The Bronx To Yale: The Power of High School Speech', was awarded a Staff Pick on Vimeo and premiered at Sheffield DocFest in 2016.
I wrote, directed and edited the short comedy film 'Countryphile' starring Cara Horgan and Toby Williams, which won the Special Jury Prize for Writing at the NBFF, 2014 and the WFTV Lifetime Shorts Award, 2016. My first short, 'Fish Love' premiered at the London Short Film Festival, 2014.
Additional information:
I also write comedy and drama, and have recently completed the 'Storytelling for the Screen' course at the Screen Arts Institute, with support from the BFI, where I was working on a feature-length black comedy.
