Hello!

I am an Associate Producer at Jungle Entertainment where I work closely with Executive Producer Chloe Rickard. My credits include MY BRILLIANT CAREER (Netflix), SUNNY NIGHTS (Stan/Cineflix), HE HAD IT COMING (Stan/Fifth Season), and GOOD COP/BAD COP (Stan, The CW, Roku).

My pharma thriller feature screenplay PILL MILL appeared in the trending top ten on the Black List website, and I’ve directed and produced many short films with screenings at SXSW Sydney, LA Shorts, and the Oscar and BAFTA-qualifying Foyle Film Festival.

I’ve also completed a director’s attachment to Corrie Chen on GOOD COP/BAD COP, and work regularly with directors and showrunners including Phillip Noyce, Trent O’Donnell, Phil Lloyd, Liz Doran, Michael Petroni, John Quaintance, Sarah Scheller, Gretel Vella, and more.

I’m originally from Newcastle, NSW and I’m now based in Bondi Beach. I hold a Master of Arts Screen: Producing and short course certificates in Directing from AFTRS, a BA(Hons) in creative writing and film studies, and a law degree.
