My original young adult TV series The Book of Watchers is in development with Blonde Mamba and my original historical TV drama Keeper of the Pleas is in development with Juliet Parker.
I took part in the Alien8ed writers room, showrun by Simon J Ashford, produced by Bandit TV and funded by the BFI.
I recently completed a year-long residency at London College of Communication, UAL, where I explored storytelling for Virtual Reality (VR) and have been selected as a LCC 2020 mentor.
I'm currently taking part in the for the 2020 CanneSeries Institute Residency where I am developing an original TV series alongside the Canal+ Creative Ecosystem.
