“The purpose of a storyteller is not to tell you how to think,

but to give you questions to think upon”

Storytelling is my life. I love telling them and I delight in being told them.

To date, I have had two feature films produced and several screenplays optioned, all of which share a strong genre DNA and explore the human themes that resonate with me.

K-Shop, a Sweeney Todd inspired modern thriller, picked up the Méliès d’argent award for best film on the fantastic film festival circuit and subsequently secured a limited theatrical release in the UK before being bought and broadcast by Sky Cinema. Currently the film rights sit with Amazon Prime where the film is available for free with a prime subscription.

A Patriot, my dystopian science fiction thriller set in a post-Brexit Britain, attracted an all-star cast including Eva Green and Oscar winners Kathy Bates and Tim Robbins. The film’s UK rights were purchased by Sky Cinema and the film is currently in turnaround with new producers.

My latest feature Die Before You Die follows a YouTuber who he finds himself trapped six feet underground after an internet challenge goes hideously wrong. The film was released in UK cinemas in 2024, recieved positive reviews from The Guardian, The Times and Mark Kermode, and picked up the Jury Prize and award for Best Direction on premiere at the Manchester Film Film Festival.
