About me

I'm a personable, high skilled self-shooter based in London that likes to connect the dots between content, culture, design, and people. I write and direct freelance and for my own projects. See my last short film, Nine and a Day which went onto several UK festivals and won an award for best editing. I have worked as a freelance scriptwriter for TV and film. Very interested in UX when it comes to online and physical design!
