About me
A career highlight is working as the Crowd Assistant Director for the BAFTA award winning film ‘ROCKS’ on Netflix. I have also worked as a Camera Trainee on the Netflix series ‘Topboy’ as well as Assistant Cinematographer & Graphics Editor for the award winning documentary, Estate, a Reverie. Now, I work as a freelance filmmaker. My varied filmmaking portfolio has taken me to El Salvador, Central America with short films screened at international film festivals. I also work as a talkshow host & facilitator for the Arts organisation; The People Speak!
