I'm a British-American screenwriter. Originally from Los Angeles, I spent much of my life between London, Bath, and Bristol. Growing up, I would make action films in the woods with my friends in lieu of being good at sports or academics. My career began when I wrote RUSSIAN ROULETTE, a short film that was accepted into the 2015 Sundance Film Festival and acquired for exclusive presentation on The New Yorker website. I co-founded PaperEpic Productions, through which I co-wrote and co-starred in HALFTERLIFE (2017) - exclusively available on the short form social media app VERO. More recently, I have co-written feature film JOHN MOVES IN for Film 4 and Netflix. I also co-created BOLLYWOOD STYLE, a TV series currently being developed by Ink Factory Films and have multiple screenplays in circulation for sale through my agent at Curtis Brown. I've also written advertising and corporate copy for multiple major clients, and moonlight as a jazz musician and voice-over artist.
