Gold winner at Young Directors Awards at Cannes Lions 2018, Best New Director Kinsale Sharks 2017 & featured in New Director’s Showcase in Cannes Lions 2017. Her career began as a Director’s assistant and protégé to Mike Leigh and Kevin MacDonald (no relation). She has written and directed all of her short films, and in the comedy genre they feel unique and fresh. She has directed commercials for McDonald's, Nescafe, Jaguar Land Rover & UN Women UK. She’s brilliant at adding that final layer of comedy to scripts. Her first comedy/drama series for C4, PURE, premiered in 2019 and she has just wrapped her second series, FLACK, starring Anna Paquin. She's a fantastic human whose energy and humour are a joy to work with.
