Strong interpersonal skills and high attention to detail with the ability to manage, troubleshoot, multitask. Experience with post- production workflow, NLE’s, file formats, knowledge of colour science, QC methodology, theatre management, DCP mastering, Motion Graphics and Compositing.

​
I graduated with a distinction in (MA) Visual Anthropology, specialising in Sensory Anthropology and Ethnographic Film from the University of Manchester. I employ my anthropological research skills, fine art background and experience in production to tell compelling stories about humanity.
With a strong interest in culture, I went on to train in Documentary film with OTOXO productions in Barcelona. I proceeded to take the Filmmaking Certification at the London Film Academy to explore on-set Production techniques for fiction films. My goal is to continue researching and creating stories in a Directorial role.
​
My experimental documentary "Pathos: The Art of Life" was officially selected for the Fine Arts Film Festival, Venice, California 2020 and screened at the Burning Man Multiverse 2020. "Trust Your Senses" received an honourable mention at the Experimental Forum 2020. I am currently producing an ethnographic documentary with the University of Tsighua featuring the Sarah Lucas Exhibition at the Tate Britain.
​
I put all my creative energy into filmmaking and I'm always open to new approaches and on the lookout for new opportunities.
