About me

I am a freelance film director and actor. I have been directing over the last two years. Prior to that, I acted exclusively. My first film, "Newbie", has recently finished on the film festival circuit, where it obtained official selections at festivals in the UK and abroad, including Two Short Nights and Portland Comedy film festival. I am currently in post production with my second short film: "The Next One."
