Biography

I am a London/ Essex based emerging production designer with a portfolio of short and feature films, live performance and art installation. Since completing an MA in Theatre Design in 2016 I have designed fringe theatre performances including Continuity – Finborough Theatre, Dir. Shane Dempsey, Modern Love – Pleasance Theatre, Dir. Emily Warren and The View from Nowhere – The Park Theatre, Dir. Dan Phillips.

I have been a BAFTA crew member since 2017 and am a member of the British Film Designers Guild, the British Society of Theatre Designers and The Production Designers Collective.

When I’m not designing I assist in the art department on a variety of feature film and tv productions (recent credits include Farming and BFI Features The Power and Martyrs Lane).

Following a fine art degree in 2007, I worked for 7 years in my home county, Cumbria, with a female-led film charity and production company, Signal Films in Barrow-in-Furness, which has produced an impressive slate of award winning short and feature length films and provided 1000s of disadvantaged people access to filmmaking and digital art opportunities.

I remain committed to providing opportunities for people from all backgrounds into the industry. I am a BAFTA crew mentor for BFI Film Academy alumni and continue to develop and lead on projects and sessions at Signal Films, Pauline Quirke Academy, National Theatre Education programme, BFI Film Academy and East15.

I believe working across different mediums opens exciting possibilities for new work. Finding new ways of working is something I believe is one way to positively address to imbalance of social and economic diversity and inclusion in the film industry. I am interested in and welcome projects that explore the relationship between different art forms and share these ideals.

“Modern Love is certainly lovingly polished, even slick, and the production values are extremely high in both the live action and filmed material.”
