My Story
From a kid who couldn't get enough of cinema, to a Filmmaker building his own.
I'm a lifelong film fan with a deep and varied interest in all styles, genres and forms. I have wanted to work in the film industry, in some capacity, since I was a child.
Scripts are my thing — but one day, after gaining my wings, I'd hope to spread them and soar in other areas of the visual arts. Editing. Camera. Sound. Foley. The whole back of house. I'm a working collaborator first and a credited storyteller second; the work matters more than the byline.
“Hopefully / will be able to help projects fly and break through with the grace and power of the flying ram of ancient Greek mythology.”— ROBERT BALLANTYNE
Timeline
From film fan to filmmaker.
1990s
Childhood
A lifelong love of cinema begins. Stories, characters and whole worlds that could transport me anywhere. The seeds of every script I write now were planted in front of a screen back then.
2017 - 2022
University
BA in Film, then a Master's in Film and Television at Falmouth University. Writing, editing, pre- and post-production, cinematography, sound. Learned how to develop, pitch and produce a feature screenplay end-to-end.
2022 - now
The Journey So Far
Working freelance as an editor on social media content for a global magazine. Writing my own scripts. Collaborating remotely with a worldwide team on live commentary, character design and storylines. Doing the reps.

Looking Ahead
More scripts. Bolder scripts. New collaborators. Building skills across editing, camera, sound and Foley. And - one day soon - bringing my own stories to life on screen.
