About me

I am a BAFTA award winning independent producer with several documentary and drama credits to my name. I set up Dreamfinder Productions in 2002 and since that time I have produced over 50 short films including BAFTA award winning BROWN PAPER BAG and BAFTA nominated BOUNCER starring Ray Winstone.

I am a passionate advocate for regional writers and filmmakers and in 2003 I co-founded West Midands Producers’ Forum which I managed for a number of years and which I am currently CEO of.

I am involved in a variety of mentoring and training initiatives.

Past projects

In 2008 I co-produced SOUL BOY which is due for release in 2010. My television documentary credits include the RTS award winning THE MAN WHO WOULDN’T PAINT HITLER and Golden Montreux nominated ABBA: BJORN AGAIN. I also produced 39 episodes of BBC continuing drama, DOCTORS.
