DIRECTOR || PHOTOGRAPHER || DJ
I’m a London-based creative with a passion for storytelling through film, photography, and audio production. My journey in the industry began at 16, starting as a Broadcast Assistant at Kiss 100FM, which opened the door to opportunities in music TV which led me to the production of music videos for artists like FKA Twigs, Blood Orange/Skepta, and Disclosure.
After gaining valuable experience, I took on the role of Multimedia Editor at Elle UK, where I directed all video content for the platform. This naturally led to my transition into full-time directing and digital image making, where I found my true calling.
Known for capturing authentic performances and injecting humor into my work, I’ve directed comedy-driven narratives for brands such as Sloggi, Tena, Vice/Red Bull and more recently, Caffè Nero.
My strength lies in bringing fresh, unique perspectives to every project, blending creativity and versatility behind the camera whether as a director, photographer or self-shooting filmmaker.
Across all that I do, I focus on authentic storytelling with a personal touch, balancing commercial success with innovative, engaging content.
