About me
20 years old, from West London. Avid creative writer from a young age, started writing scripts for a joint venture with my older brother at the age of 12, following this I began writing poetry. From secondary school I studied film and television at college, acquiring extensive experience in the field and furthering my writing abilities. I left college with a published feature in a poetry book selling in WHSmiths and the highest grade possible from my course. After which I moved to Brighton and attended University on an English Language and Creative Writing course for one year before deciding that more practical work rather than academic was better suited to me. From 16 I have worked in many fields, bartending, hospitality, retail, scriptwriting, script supervision, continuity checking on film set and manual labour. I have worked at studios such as Pinewood, venues such as the Shard and many other locations. I have an avid interest in writing, skateboarding and music. I have held so many jobs in an attempt to keep myself busy, earn money and further my abilities. I have always had the intention to pursue a career in writing or publishing. Finally, I currently live in Brighton and will be moving back to London in the middle of 2019. This is to better commit to potential positions or opportunities.
