What critics said
“Presents its combined storylines with skill.”
“Throughout the pain, Jesy always finds moments to laugh.”
What I bring to a production
Beautiful self-shot footage
I shoot to a high standard myself, from lit master interviews to fast-moving actuality, so a small team can still deliver a premium look.
Style set through the edit
I’ve taken series from pre-production to delivery, written scripts and VO, and edit-produced episodes so the tone holds across a run.

Director’s note
The Pub continues my interest in observational storytelling and real human interaction. The confined space of a car became the perfect place to show how ordinary settings can hold extraordinary moments of connection.

About
I’m an experienced shooting director specialising in talent-led films, both singles and multi-part series. I bring care and emotion to divisive topics and find the warmth in human stories.
Alongside factual, I write and direct drama. My first short came in 2020; my second, The Pub, won Best Indie Short at Toronto Indie Shorts and screened at festivals across the UK, Europe and America.
