I am an enthusiastic screenwriter and film editor, with additional experience in producing, directing, and videography. My communication and organisation skills have been honed by my practice as a piano teacher and lifeguard, and my involvement in the TV industry has made me calm under pressure. Fantastic Mr Fox has remained my favourite film over the last ten years.
