about.
Back in my early 20s, I did the BBC Director's course and it only took me another 20 years before I decided to use it. In the meantime I've been in tv production, publishing, central government and some shadowy financial job but I've always loved a good yarn. Especially if it's got a touch of the mysterious too.
I'm up for collaboration, up for speaking to fellow filmmakers/ writers and generally up for chat unless you're the kind of person that spends your days grassing up people under lockdown and posting them on social media. Aside from that, we'll get along just fine.
Key fact: I knew I was destined for greatness when at 6 years old I bagged the top audience spot on Saturday Superstore hosted by Big Daddy, crammed into one of the five boxes adorning the entrance. Boss.
