I am a Bafta winning and double Emmy nominated scripted and documentary director. My documentary work includes the Emmy nominated Why Do We Dance? and Duran Duran: There is Something you should know (Netflix, BBC & Showtime).

My scripted short, The Cunning Man, was long listed for a Bafta, selected at 3 Oscar qualifying festivals and won 29 International film festival awards including 5 for best director.The Cunning Man is in the genre of magic realism and horror. It's a peculiar English folk tale that modernizes anxieties over the countryside and the people who live there.

In 2021 I was selected on the Netflix sponsored WFTV Mentoring Scheme. In 2022 I was accepted on the BFI backed Filmonomics 6 programme for debut feature directors and producers. I have two features in development with Little Monk Pictures.
