About me

I am a commercials and short film director. My adverts have been broadcast in Cinemas, TV and online, while my shorts have screened at festivals internationally, picking up a handful of awards and nominations.
Over the last 15 years I have directed adverts for clients including Nintendo, Samsung, Brother and Fruittella. This work leans towards the farcical, showing a talent for physical comedy with a cinematic flare.
My short film work displays a versatile mix of drama, animation and documentary, including the Raindance nominated Strange Weather starring Maxine Peake, and most recently the Creative England and BFI funded The Knackerman.
My work shows a diverse range of styles with a solid grounding in storytelling and visual communication.
