I was born in the old mill town of Blackburn in the North of England. After working many different jobs, from labouring to working in the NHS, a desire to tell and share stories came to the fore and I began making films. My films investigate the universal issues of alienation, isolation, the need for connection and how it is often found through a shared passion.

My film ‘The Last Storm’ was long-listed for the Oscars in 2020, had it’s World Première at Tribeca Film Festival, won the Jury Prize at Hot Springs Documentary Festival, Arkansas. Other films have had the honour of winning awards at a number of festivals, including ‘Best documentary’ at Berlin, Barcelona, New York and Leeds International film festivals. They have also garnered 8 Vimeo Staff Picks and been featured in The New York Times, The Guardian, The Atlantic, and Short of the Week.
