About me
Winner of the Student Employee of the Year award 2015 from the University of Brighton. I am creative, artistic, hard working and ambitious. Through my work experience I have proven myself to be broad-minded, self-controlled, logical and trustworthy.
After 14 years of working in Security, Construction and Customer Service, I took a risk and invested in my future by going to university and completing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Film and Screen Studies. On my degree I have shown that I can work to deadlines, source and synthesise a range of information, critically analyse and have developed an expert awareness of the film industry. I also directed the end of degree show 'End Credits' after being nominated by a group of my peers.
Prior to starting university in 2012, I was writing feature length scripts and had sent query letters, with a sample of my work, out to agencies to get representation. As well as writing feature length films, I have written sitcom pilots and graphic novels. It was positive feedback from talent agencies that influenced my decision to pursue a career in film.
Before this, in the period from 1999 to 2008, I was a hip hop recording artist signed to the Brighton record label, 'Latest Records'. 'Latest Records' funded the release of a studio album, written, produced and recorded by myself. To promote the record I performed at a festival in Brooklyn, New York. I also had releases on compilations in Japan, USA and Germany all through independent promotion.
I finished university in July 2015, graduating with a 2:1. I moved to London in August 2015 and worked at Imperium Management as an associate agent working with my own client list of roughly 80 actors. As an agent I submitted actors that I found for TV, Film, Theatre and commercials and liaised with casting directors and production companies.
In April 2017, I have left Imperium Management to pursue my dream of being a scriptwriter.
