About me

I am the writer and co-director of the short films ON THE EDGE and ROTTEN APPLES and the writer of THE STUDENT BODY, which won the SHORT SPARKS FILM FESTIVAL. I am currently working on the script for a feature film with actress Esther Stanford. Ben Robinson, producer from ISIS MEDIA is attached to the project.

I worked for the Birmingham branch of The Television Workshop for a number of years as a session leader and play director. Since the Birmingham branch went dark I have set up my own company - First Act Workshops - to continue working with talented young actors in the Midlands. If you need professional young actors for your projects, please contact me.

Similarly, if you need music for your project, I work for MAYBE DREAMERS, a songwriting company based in Brighton. We have three songs currently accepted by Polydor and we're now writing for film/tv and computer games.
