I am a filmmaker, screenwriter and comedian based in Western Norway.
My debut feature documentary EatenFish is currently in development with the Oscar-nominated producer Anne Köhncke (Final Cut for Real Norway). The film is a creative and colourful dive into the world of refugee cartoonist Ali Dorani, and has been presented at IDFA Forum, Nordisk Panorama and Sheffield Doc/Fest MeetMarket in 2023, and developed at Documentary Campus Masterschool. The project has received support from The Norwegian Film Institute, ARTE France, Filmkraft Rogaland, Fritt Ord Foundation and SVT.
I was previously a Senior Producer at BBC Ideas, and Creative Director at boutique digital production house Angel Sharp Media. I have directed multiple factual shorts for the BBC, garnering nominations for Webby and Broadcast Digital Awards.
I am working on several funded fiction projects as a screenwriter, and my filmmaking is entwined with my extensive experience in comedy writing and performance. I have toured the world with a variety of live comedy shows, and I am one of the leading improvisers in the UK, co-directing and starring in West End smash Austentatious. In 2022 a podcast I produced and co-created with Ralph Jones – Come Into My Kitchen – was nominated for ‘Best Comedy’ at the British Podcast Awards, UK podcasting’s highest honour.
