I bring my background in interdisciplinary art, theatre design and socially engaged filmmaking projects to my world building approach for Film and TV and into creating and leading a team.
Having worked up through the art department I have managed large budgets, set builds, location adaptions and teams as a supervising art director, experience that feeds directly into my production design process. Art direction credits for feature film and tv drama include Kevin Macdonald’s The Runner (2026) , Black Mirror S7 - ‘Plaything’ (2024) and Landscapers (2021) which won a TV BAFTA for best production design.
I remain committed to sharing our craft, building a community and encouraging new faces into the industry through my work and the opportunities I am able to offer others. I mentor with BFI Film Academy, UAL and BAFTA, and co-organise and participate in events with the British Film Designers Guild, The Production Designer’s Collective and the Society of British Theatre Designers.
