BIO

As a director, my commercial work is cinematic, creative, fresh, and contemporary—bringing strong visuals, character, and energy to brands. At the age of 32, I have 9 years experience under my belt whilst still knowing what’s hot and culturally relevant.

PERSONAL PROJECTS

My personal projects and writing in development lean into the absurd and offbeat, with a fascination for the strange corners of pop and contemporary culture. I’m curious in exploring playful visual worlds with narratives that feel just left of centre.

PHOTOGRAPHY

As a photographer, I work on a medium format analogue camera, exploring the absurdity of life and gender, and making space for the weird, odd, and uncanny.
