I was born in the old mill town of Blackburn in the North of England. After working various jobs, from labouring to working in the NHS, a deep-seated desire to tell and share stories emerged, leading me to the world of filmmaking. Initially, I focused on documentaries, but my passion for storytelling has since expanded into other forms. 

My films delve into themes that explore the beauty of human connection and the transformative power of shared passions. My films capture the enriching experiences that emerge from overcoming feelings of alienation and isolation, emphasising the importance of these connections in our lives. Additionally, I incorporate the theme of impermanence, reflecting on the fleeting nature of moments and experiences. Through the use of digital and analogue film, I aim to evoke a sense of nostalgia and authenticity, highlighting the timeless nature of these universal themes. My approach is often influenced by poetic realism that strive to create films that not only tell stories but also evoke emotions and provoke thought, leaving a lasting impression on those who watch them.


WORK

My film 'The Last Storm' was long-listed for the Oscars in 2020, had it's World Première at Tribeca Film Festival, won the Jury Prize at Hot Springs Documentary Festival, Arkansas. Other films have had the honour of winning awards at a number of festivals, including 'Best documentary' at Berlin, Barcelona, New York and Leeds International film festivals. They have screened at over 200 film festivals around the globe, including Tribeca, Sheffield Docfest, DOC NYC, London Short Film Festival and many more. They have also garnered 8 Vimeo Staff Picks and been featured in The New York Times, The Guardian, The Atlantic, and Short of the Week.

My thematic focus and stylistic approach have seamlessly translated into my work on narrative feature films as a 2nd unit director. My background in documentaries allows me to infuse a sense of authenticity and realism into every scene making the films more relatable and resonant for audiences.
