BIO

I grew up loving film. Whether it was going to the cinema with friends or DVD nights with the family, movies were always a great source of enjoyment and education for me. But it was only in my mid 20s that I decided to pursue film properly as a career.

 

I originally studied Theoretical Physics in Trinity and went on to do a Masters in Strategic Management in UCD Smurfit Business School. During my masters I wrote and directed my debut short film 'Not with a Bang But a Whimper', which screened at a festivals around Ireland in 2015. It was an experience that taught me so much and I immediately knew I wanted more.​ So I got in touch with a few production companies who were kind enough to give me some work, and I began learning first hand what it takes to produce professional film, tv, and commercial advertising. I've enjoyed great working relationships with these producers and crews to this day.

​

My second short film, 'Man to Man', premiered at the Galway Film Fleadh and was selected for festivals internationally, receiving the O'Kalem Award for Best Short Film at the Baton Rouge Irish Film Festival as well as an Audience Award at the Chicago Irish Film Festival. My subsequent shorts, 'Cut-throat' and 'Down The Road' also played at festivals worldwide to excellent reception. The latter is a Gold Medal Winner at the Spotlight Documentary Film Awards.

 

For four years I was Head of Film in RichardsDee, a brand and design agency based in Dublin. My background in strategy and production, combined with my creative appetite, helped facilitate a complete service, from concept to execution.

​

These days I am back as a freelance filmmaker, helping brands move beyond corporate storytelling towards narrative truth, captivating character, and cinematic realness.
