Writer-Director
I'm currently developing my first feature film with the support of the BFI, having developed the concept and treatment as a recipient of their Early Development Fund.
I was nominated for Film London's 2023 Lodestars Awards in the writer's category, and was recently awarded a scholarship to Sundance Collab's screenwriting courses.
I'm also incredibly grateful be a recipient of the Gane Trust Grant, which has supported my writing and directing work.
My first short film as director, 'The Eyes of Marge', was a winner of the 2022 Other Brother Studios Film Fund and is currently on the festival circuit, winning two awards at BIFA Qualifying Unrestricted View Film Festival where I was also delighted to be nominated for Best Director.
​
Prior to this, I wrote short dystopian film, 'A.R.P.U.' which went on to win awards at a number of national and international film festivals.
​
My interests lie strongly in creating work within the horror, sci-fi and dystopian genres (with a bit of black comedy thrown in for good measure) and telling stories with a female narrative at their core; exploring how often these have been, and still are, warped or twisted by other voices.

In a grimy, gritty world where the services put in place to protect us are no longer enough, a male social worker becomes subject to intrusive phone calls from an unknown woman.

A.R.P.U.
Congratulations, you've been commoditized and you never even knew it...

A.R.P.U. – which stands for ‘average revenue per user’ – is a short dystopian film inspired by the Netflix documentary ‘The Great Hack’ and the Cambridge Analytica scandal. The film explores our relationship with our online data, and what could happen when we give it away so freely.
