About
I’m a creative producer who originates, develops and directs entertainment, podcasts and brand content. I can take a project from idea to delivery: concept and scripting, casting and booking, directing, editing and distribution.
I co-founded Oriri, a content-led group stays brand, and ran its social film programme with multi-day shoots, 70+ talent and output of up to five films a week. As a composer my music has received BBC 6 Music and Spotify Editorial placement.
I prize on-set chemistry and apply a diligent, strategic approach to building stories and brands, using character, humour and a filmmaker’s eye. From five years running a business, I bring commercial judgement and work comfortably with budgets, suppliers and deadlines.
Available for freelance or fixed term producing, directing and editing in London and remotely.
