I’m a filmmaker with a passion for music, photography, and visual design. I began my career as an editor intern at Blast Theory, exploring the social and political aspects of technology through installation and video. Since then, I've been fortunate to work on a wide range of projects, including commercials, television, and independent films and have collaborated with partners such as Adobe, Channel 4 and BBC.
In addition to editing, I'm also a keen photographer and enjoy working in the darkroom. This interest has informed my approach to colour grading.
I hold an MA in Craft Editing, in which I achieved a distinction grade. This program gave me a deep understanding of narrative editing, which has helped me develop a unique style that prioritises storytelling.
Over the years, I've also been involved in a number of music collaborations, organising music events and establishing an independent record label.
With an absolute passion for cinema, I continue to learn and develop my skills.
My goal is to create thought-provoking documentary and drama that challenge and inspire audiences. I'm always open to collaborations and would love to hear from you if you have a project in mind.
I look forward to connecting with you.
