I have also worked extensively in commercials, and brand communications  winning Silver at the New York Film Festival and runner up in the Film 4 Directors Cut Awards.  I have developed, directed and edited factual series and have several feature films with budgets up to $15M in development. I self shoot, and edit and am capable on Blackmagic Resolve, and Adobe CC and have filmed in locations around the world.

For three years now I have also taught Screen acting to university drama students, teaching acting principles and then devising, shooting and editing their graduate shorts and monologues. I also now mentor private clients in screen acting.
