I love empowering creatives and made a career out of it long before I started coaching.

Since graduating from the Peter Stark Producing Program at USC in Los Angeles in 2011, I have almost fifteen years of experience in TV drama & comedy development and story producing.

My TV career started in the American TV industry in Los Angeles where I worked across drama and comedy, production companies and writers’ rooms — all the way to London, where I’ve worked in Scripted Development at Carnival Films, SunnyMarch, and BBC Studios Comedy.

Over the years, I’ve worked with dozens of new and experienced writers and performers, including many neurodivergent and queer voices.

I have spent much of my career not only working out how to tell stories authentic to the characters living it, but also how to support talent to make sure they have everything they need to make the best possible version of the show they want to make.

Most recently, while working for BBC Studios Comedy, I story produced a major comedy drama for BBC One called Death Valley, written by amazing and BAFTA-nominated Paul Doolan, with iconic, BAFTA winning Timothy Spall in the lead role of John Chapel, and the phenomenal Gwyneth Keyworth as disarming, brilliant Janie Mallowan.

It’s a very special show and I feel incredibly lucky to have worked with the best group of people, making a TV show about two lonely people whose unexpected friendship transforms their lives.

I’m still freelancing in TV for projects, writers, and talent near and dear to my heart. 📺
