As a Film Graduate I hold skills in Video Direction with five years of experience in Photography, Videography and two years of Direction of Photography experience with Video Editing within my capabilities. (Available upon request)
Reflecting on my journey so far, my love for visual content creation inspired me to obtain my Bachelor's degree in Film Production at The University of West London, after completing a Foundation Diploma in Art & Design at University of The Arts: Central Saint Martins in 2017. As a Freelancer Director of Photography, I have developed and directed shoots within London's fashion and music industry such as BBC Three, NHS, Nike and music festivals like Strawberries & Creem and Parklife festival all while still at university. Specifically focused on creative direction of short films, music videos with stylistic elements, lighting, set direction, and casting.
Creative thinking is an integral part of my proactive approach to building with brands. I crave taking part in ground-breaking projects alongside ambitious clients with the potential to grow and progress into new territories. I am passionate about impacting the lives of others through fusing stylistic elements into eye-catching cinematic setups.
