I've been involved in film since I was 15, as a member of The Children's Film Unit which introduced me to the industry through handheld cameras and primitive software. But the seed was planted and it could only grow; I have since been involved in professional and semi-professional productions, from Harry Potter to my own short features filmed at Leavesden Studios. A few years back, my love for film led me to Egypt, where I was a judge at the Cairo International Film Fesival, which was an experience i'll never forget for various reasons. I am now a youth worker, but film is still very much a big part of my life.
