Traveling abroad for work is not an issue. I have been dedicated to filmmaking since 2008 where I first started editing short compilation videos together. From there my interest into the production of filmmaking grew exponentially, leading me to start producing and filming my own films. I started studying the processes from there, to be able to become a collaborative and flexible member of any crew; completing my job both safely and with foremost, the productions vision at heart. Nationalities and passports: British, German Education & Training: BA Hons - Practical Filmmaking - Met Film School 1 st option media safety training passport BA Media and Communications – Goldsmiths College University of London (2 Years completed) A-Levels: A,A,B 9 GCSE’s including 4 at Grade A* Furthermore, I have completed several film courses since 2009. I completed the New York Film Academy 3 week Directing course in L.A. Two courses at the Met Film School in London, including a 3 week Editing course and in 2011 a 4 week Directing course. Also in 2010 I attended The London Film Academy for a 4 week filmmaking course.
