About me

I am a curious, adaptable and confident designer, content creator, editor and filmmaker. I have a passion for modes of storytelling that explore eccentric characters, reckon with the unspoken minutia of the human experience and approach fringe subjects in playful and surprising ways. I am especially excited by graphic design, documentary, music video, animation and short film. 


As a Goldsmith’s graduate with a first in Documentary Film, I have honed a broad range of creative and technical disciplines, sharpening my skills with both pre and post-production, primarily storyboarding, camera operation, cinematography, editing, sound design, animation, transcoding, syncing and project management. This training has fine-tuned my ability to seek out and execute compelling and provoking stories.
