I’m an Edinburgh-based production professional with experience across branded content, commercials, short films, television and film, including the upcoming HBO Max documentary 'The Slightest Touch'. I spent a year and a half working in Hong Kong, where I worked across a range of productions and gained experience in everything from scheduling and crew coordination to location scouting, client communication and budgeting support.

I'm currently working on a contract basis as an Events and Partnerships Coordinator at Urban Kingdom, helping distribute a long-form media project across the UK and Australia. I've also done freelance script and pitch deck coverage, which has given me the chance to explore the creative and editorial side of the industry alongside production. I enjoy being involved in different stages of a project, working with people and figuring out how to make things happen behind the scenes.
