I am a writer/director with a lifelong passion for making films that move people. My work is both intimate and cinematic and my award-winning short films have screened internationally at BIFA qualifying festivals such as KINO and Worcester as well as Cannes. My latest short film 'TUNA' starring Dave Johns (I, Daniel Blake) is currently in post production. I was awarded ‘Best Director' at Folkestone Festival and my work has been distributed by platforms Omeleto and Film Shortage.

I began making films at the age of 12, inspired by Steven Spielberg, and have since developed a body of work that spans award-winning short films, music videos, stage productions and commercials.

​

I am the founder of Hastings Pictures, which I established at age 12. Making a feature film instead of studying for my A Levels, I've always had a 'just do' attitude when it comes to creativity. Not going to Uni or film school and just making films has led me to write/direct a number of short films that have screened internationally at festivals. My work includes Wild Bear, Hidden Insight, Make It Stop!, Off The Coast, and Slightly Red Handed.

​

In 2017, I received the Inspiring Young Filmmaker Award in recognition of my early achievements, before going on to serve as a Global Youth Ambassador for RoundTable Global. In addition to my film work, I have directed music videos featuring leading West End performers Kerry Ellis, Jamie Muscato and Bradley Jaden, and wrote/directed an original stage musical Everything Between Us, further demonstrating my range as a storyteller.

​

I currently work for London-based production company Pictures For The People, where I direct branded and commercial content for clients including UNiDAYS, Kier, and Frontline as well as self-shooting around the country, most notably at Buckingham Palace, Abbey Road Studios and Southbank Centre. My work in this space combines strong narrative sensibilities with a clear understanding of audience and purpose.
