I am a film director working across narrative, docudrama and commercial, with a focus on socially engaged storytelling and participatory filmmaking.
My work explores intimate personal stories of isolation and connection against backdrops of social impact, marginalisation, and communities of outsiders and outcasts. My work is often developed in collaboration with communities whose lived experience shapes the work itself. I am interested in films that sit between scripted and documentary, and in creating non-traditional processes that centre co-creation.
I began my career working in applied arts facilitation, leading projects in prisons and with individuals experiencing homelessness. This practice of participatory community-focused storytelling informs my approach to filmmaking, both in terms of process and subject matter.
Alongside my directing work, I have experience as a 1st AD across film and television, collaborating with organisations including BBC, BFI NETWORK, and Netflix.
I am a member of BAFTA Connect and a Gotham Marcie Bloom Fellow. I’m a candidate on the Grad Film programme at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts in New York, where I am a recipient of the BAFTA scholarship and the WTC Johnson scholarship. In 2025 I took part in HBO’s mentorship programme on House of the Dragon.
I'm currently developing two feature projects — a coming-of-age docudrama working with young people in Bristol, and a narrative drama inspired by my time working in prisons.
