HE/HIM

The main aim of my work is to create productions that an audience can relate to, that represent the real world we live in and that have the ability to change an audience’s societal views. A lot of my work does this through attempting to create empathy for characters, through educating or attempting to change the stigma around certain sections of society.

I am passionate about working with new talent in order to help them make fulfill their potential, whether that be through specific productions or one on one career advice.

Founder/Artistic Director of Portsmouth Road Productions (formerly Blueleaf Theatre).

Former Associate Director at Stockwell Playhouse and Associate Producer of The British Theatre Academy.
