About me

I'm a filmmaker, screenwriter, and creative technologist working across narrative film, animation, and emerging performance technologies. My work explores emotional realism, memory, identity, and what it means for characters — human or synthetic — to feel "alive" on screen.

Alongside directing and writing short films and speculative screenplays, I work with virtual production and digital performance, connecting cinematic storytelling with real-time tools and emerging technologies.

I'm the founder and director of Sustain Film Festival, a UK-based community film festival dedicated to sustainability, resilience, and socially engaged storytelling. The festival brings together filmmakers, artists, and local audiences through screenings, talks, and collaborative events.

I'm mostly drawn to projects with strong characters that use technology seamlessly, and to collaborations that defy genre or convention while maintaining strong emotional resonance..

Recent work includes An Avatar Prepares, Remember the Future, Come You Spirits, and Among the Cherry Trees.
