about.
My debut feature, ADDITION - produced by Made Up Stories and BuonGiorno Productions, and starring Teresa Palmer and Joe Dempsie - premiered at TIFF. IndieWire called it an “essential mental health rom-com”, while The Cherry Picks named it one of TIFF’s 20 “buzz-worthy” films. Following its release, it spent four consecutive weeks in Prime Video Australia’s Drama Top 10, holding the #3 and then #4 positions.
My first feature documentary, HABANA SHAKES - an intimate, lyrical portrait of Cuban youth filmed over ten days in Havana, often from the boot of a 1950s Cadillac - won Best Film at the Byron Bay International Film Festival.
Before moving into features, I worked across advertising, fashion and design - and directed a lot of music videos. Art, cinema, literature and music have always fed into my work. I’m drawn to complicated people, humour in unexpected places and stories that resist easy labels. I’m also partial to a bold image.
I currently have projects in development with Made Up Stories as well as with producers Jomon Thomas and Megan Wynn.
