About me
I am a filmmaker, visual artist and writer based in London. I am also the founder of You Look Okay to Me, the online space for chronic illness which has an audience of almost 30,000 people. I'm driven by the power of authentic storytelling and use visual techniques to uncover powerful human experiences. Most of my work takes the form of moving images, including documentaries and essay films. Some of my collaborations include: Meta for Business, BBC News, Huffington Post, gal-dem, Adidas, Scope Charity and Creative Conscience. I am a current fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and artist resident of Forma Arts.
