About

I am a dedicated film student passionate about storytelling, eager to gain practical experience working within pre-production teams. I strive to learn and excel through every step of the filmmaking process, pushing myself to produce well-conceived projects. Currently, I focus on building upon my screenwriting skills to find my unique voice within the industry.

Throughout my education and internships, I have embraced leadership roles, collaborated effectively with creative teams, and expanded my technical and creative abilities across screenwriting, art direction, set design, and sound recording. I am proud to contribute to powerful narratives such as “WINDRUSH,” which highlights important but lesser-known aspects of British history, and I continue to develop my craft through hands-on production experience and ongoing study.
