THE HYBRID FILMMAKER

My path into filmmaking came through both practice and theory. I studied Film and Television at the University of Warwick before completing a Masters in Screen Media and Cultures at the University of Cambridge, where my work focused on editing, cinematic form, and how images shape meaning. That foundation gave me a language for film - but it was making work, not studying it, that taught me how stories live or die.

What interests me most are stories about people rather than spectacle: moments of quiet tension, contradiction, and connection. I’m drawn to work that allows ambiguity, trusts the viewer, and finds meaning in the everyday. Whether the context is commercial or independent, the goal is the same - to make something felt, not just understood.

At the centre of my work is a simple idea: good stories are built, not announced. They emerge through attention, collaboration, and care - and they endure when craft and intent are aligned.
