My award-winning writing has spanned everything from scripts for live action, animation and audio, to copywriting on billboards, socials and TV commercials. I’ve written countless scripts for TVCs, social content, narrative music videos, sketches, short films, and am also now venturing into long-form.
Variety truly is the spice of life, and it’s hard to keep track of the amount of words I’ve put to paper and screen. Like the time I wrote copy for a batch of 150 different On-Air idents for the global rebrand of an entertainment giant, or the time I conjured up lines for Danny Dyer (script lines, you absolute animal).
I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing my words brought to life by actors and voice artists such as Lee Ingleby, Steve Furst, Danny Dyer and Becky G, to TV personalities such as Maya Jama, Rylan Clark, Iain Stirling, Charlotte Crosby, Rita Ora, Blake Webber, Oobah Butler and many more.
I’m very flexible tonally (sadly not so much physically) and thus these scripts ranged from super goofy, to super serious (and sometimes, a balance of the two).
All of the work found on this website (and here) originated from my frantic keyboard tapping, so to get a feel for my writing skills please take a look around! Enjoy your stay.

About:
I was given an early 10-page draft of “The Mimers” by co-writer Steve Furst, which I then re-wrote into a new 15 page screenplay. I also then directed the short film.
It’s a satirical comedy drama loosely inspired by the infamous UK Miner’s strikes; however this time, the fight isn’t in the pits, but on the stage.
With his beloved family trade targeted by a right-wing government with a long-standing hatred for the arts, a Mime performer desperately rallies the troops for a silent revolution, vowing to save the arts from facing the final curtain.
