I’m a writer/director of TV and film who’s extremely motivated to bring well-told and untold stories to as wide an audience as possible. I believe passionately in the role of TV and film plays as an engine for understanding and change.
 

In 2023 I was the trainee director on the BBC/Amazon comedy series The Outlaws. I was privileged to shadow Stephen Merchant, John Butler and Curtis Vowell during the making of Season 3, airing March 2024.
 

I was voted among the 100 most influential people in Bristol in the BME power list 2018 and won ‘Best Short film’ for ‘Check the Label’ at The Royal Television Society Awards West 2018. Also ‘Best Documentary’ at the Royal Television Society Awards West 2021, for Monumental, two BBC Local Radio Gillard Awards for ‘Diversity and Community’ among other awards.
 

Just before 2020 I launched the only black owned and run production company in Bristol - Blak Wave Productions.
 

I have made various shorts and recently directed my first short for CBBC called Topknot or not. A short film I’ve written and directed – PICKNEY; funded by the BFI, won an audience award at the American Black Film Festival in 2021.
 

My films have screened at Encounters Film Festival, Pan African Film and Arts Festival LA, the UNESCO Creative Cities Annual Meeting in Santos Brazil, Africa in Motion (Glasgow), Third Horizon, Afrika Eye Festival, Toronto Black Film Festival, Flatpack Festival, The Shot List, Two Short Nights, Film and Folklore Festival, Caribbeantales International Film Festival and Caribbean International Film Festival and Friday Late – GUAP x V&A.
 

I am a Greison DocLab Alumni and a full Voting member of BAFTA.
Currently I’m a writer in residence for 5 Acts Productions, an ITV studios Label and the co-artistic director of the Bristol School of Acting. Read Less
