SKILLS

At University I learnt many skills in directing and film production including camera and sound. At university I found my feet in documentary a genre I am extremely interested and comfortable in but also found interest in new ways to tell stories through mobile phones and social media platform.

EDUCATION

BIOGRAPHY

I’ve always loved films from the first films I remember watching that captured my imagination (Star Wars and Toy Story) but it wasn’t until I watched Jaws while studying my English GCSE I first really started to consider films are created not just there and from that moment on I decided I wanted to make films and tell stories for a living and I’ve never looked back.
