I am a writer and film director based in the UK, from the Pacific Northwest. Simply put I love stories that are personal, intimate and that say something about the human condition. I am a lecturer in Film and TV production and also a PhD student.

It was a lot of fun being a guest on 'Do You Wanna Party?' podcast hosted by Troy Bowman. This is a minute by minute pod focusing on the film Return of the Living Dead. We talked about zombie survival and our film First Christmas.

A couple of weeks ago I caught two special films. If you are looking for something worthy of your time I highly recommend Sing Sing (Amazon Prime UK) and The Fall (Mubi). #experience #cinema

I had a blast #directing a short film written by our lead actress #katemorganjones this past weekend in #Bath. The film is inspired by her experiences working in fitness and how online reviews impact instructors careers. More to follow.

For a guy who passed away far too young he has a great legacy of films. I remember seeing #Joshy and thinking it was special and then followed up by #TheLittleHours. #indiefilmlegacy

Carol is a film I watch once a year. It's so understated, with beautiful cinematography and a tone that lingers.

A couple months ago my first non-fiction short story was published, it is called Playing War. I have been trying out different art forms over the past few years, a way to stimulate new creativity in my filmmaking but also to explore new elements of myself.
