Welcome to my website showcasing my work as a film and TV drama director.

I have an interest in exploring stories of coming of age, identity, people being marginalised from society, ordinary people in extraordinary situations, and the clash of fantasy and reality.

Many of them are about Deaf identity, sign language and Deaf culture as I am a profoundly Deaf / BSL-user.

My films have been shown at film festivals both nationally and internationally, winning awards in the process and have been shown on Film4, CBBC, Sky on Demand and TogetherTV.

I'm currently in a BBC Elevate two-year programme to progress my career into HETV drama directing and I am a member of Directors UK.

I also work on mainstream (hearing) films and I am currently writing and developing various feature length treatments and screenplays.
