AWARDS/HIGHLIGHTS
I am a filmmaker based in Dublin, represented internationally for directing. I work predominantly in commercials, however have exciting drama projects in development for production in 2023.
I like to think that classical storytelling and garnering authentic performances are where my strengths lie and although I aspire to make film/TV throughout my career, I too have a genuine love of good advertising. I was also delighted to have been part of the judging panel for 'Film Craft' at the Kinsale Sharks of 2022 and The Immortal Awards 2023.
Going into 2023, I am looking to explore more opportunities in directing commercials internationally, along with finishing my debut feature film KING FRANKIE, slated for release early 2024.
I am the proud founder of Banjoman, Ireland's 'Production Company of the Year' 2021 and 2022 at The Shark Awards and the 2021 'Immortals #1 Irish Production Company'.
