I've directed and produced a wide range of documentary, drama doc, travelogue and fact ent programmes. Whatever the genre, I want to make films that make people laugh and cry, and I’m always looking to build those highs and lows into the narrative, while developing a great rapport with contributors, and working with high profile talent on location around the world. I’m known for primetime, high end docs; creating compelling narrative arcs, and script writing for everything from serious crime to comic. I self shoot to a high standard and I’m equally comfortable directing large crews. My visual aspirations are high, but never higher than great storytelling and compelling characters.
In 2019 I was BAFTA nominated for feature documentary ‘School For Stammerers’. The press described it as ‘a remarkable documentary, told simply and respectfully’, and ‘an emotional journey – there are tears all round. Practically drama’.
I also write, and I'm represented by The Artists Partnership. During lockdown I entered a BBC Writersroom opportunity to write a short screenplay to be filmed on Zoom. Of 6800 scripts entered, mine was one of 8 made, and it won a Rose D’Or for Best Multiplatform. I’ve now written and directed multiple shorts that have screened at BAFTA Qualifying festivals, and my film ‘Choked Up’, a comedy drama starring Maxine Peake & Adam James, is currently screening on Shorts TV and Omeleto.
