About
b. 1998 in Slovakia and raised in Northern Ireland.
My short films explore individuals facing difficult decisions while undergoing questions of identity in the wider world and I’m interested in the cinematic re-contextualisation of Northern Ireland as a response to its previous historical portrayal. My graduation film Another Day in ‘98 screened at festivals across Ireland and won the Best Student Film award at Kerry Film Festival supported by Screen Ireland.
My previous teaching roles have included being the
Associate Lecturer of Visual Narratives at Central Saint Martin’s and Chelsea College of the Arts.
From 2023-2024 I was part of the curating team for the
Visions of Europe programme at the Queen’s Film Theatre in Belfast.
In addition to narrative filmmaking, I’ve worked with interior design studio Sigmar London, created fashion campaigns at London Fashion Week, and have four years of in house commercial video experience.
