Additional Information
I started my career in post production for a small independent before moving into production for Thames and the BBC in 1999. I made the transition to the creative hotbed of the BBC script department 5 years ago. Since then I've worked in a number of roles most notably script editing on Silent Witness and storylining on Holby City. I'm currently using these skills to develop my own projects as a writer - a BritFlick comedy; a murder-mystery series; and, a WWII heartbreaker.
