I love working with people to shape ideas and tell exciting stories about film and pop culture, whether in an editorial or brand capacity. From reviews to features, profiles, interviews and everything in between, I’m always looking to expand my repertoire and work with new publications and brands.
I am a member of the London Critics Circle and the Critic’s Choice Association, and a voting member of BIFA.
My voice can be heard on a regular basis over on the Truth & Movies podcast, and I have previously appeared on BBC Radio, TalkRadio, Radio4’s Front Row and ScreenShot, BBC World Service’s The Arts Hour, The Film Stage Show, Monocle on Culture, and the Picturehouse and Curzon podcasts. I have also appeared on BBC Breakfast, BBC World News and ITV News commenting on news stories regarding cinema, and have contributed to recorded features on Arrow releases for Miami Vice and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. I also wrote and voiced a video essay on cats in cinema for BBC iPlayer, an introduction to Andrea Arnold’s Red Road for BFI Player, and wrote/voiced the introduction for the TV premiere of Monsoon for BBC2, and scripted and voiced a video essay on Todd Solondz’s Welcome to the Dollhouse for Radiance Films.
In 2019 I presented a talk at the British Film Institute entitled ‘The Memefication of Feminism’ about the intersection of film, feminism, and internet culture, which I have since presented to students at Falmouth University. I also regularly deliver lectures on making a career in film criticism and wrote this comprehensive free guide.
I have also hosted Q&As with filmmakers and actors including Wim Wenders, Luca Guadagnino, Josephine Decker, Josh O’Connor, Harris Dickinson, Charlotte Regan, Babak Jalali, Tina Satter, Joachim Trier, Kitty Green, Levan Akin, Charlotte Wells, Christopher Andrews and Desiree Akhavan, written Blu-ray essays for Second Sight and the BFI and participated in panels, Q&As and introductions for BAFTA, Cannes Film Festival, MUBI, the London Korean Film Festival, the BFI, Raindance Film Festival, Leeds Film Festival, London Film Festival, HOME, Glasgow Film Festival, Showroom/Workstation and Reclaim the Frame.
I have also written a book! My monograph on the work of Sofia Coppola was published in May 2022 by Abrams New York. The book received coverage in i-D, Dazed, Polyester, LitHub, New York Magazine and Movie Maker Magazine.
I programmed my book’s launch event at the British Film Institute, and special events in London, New York and Los Angeles with Rooftop Film Club, The Barbican Centre, The Prince Charles Cinema, The Garden Cinema, Nitehawk Brooklyn, The Roxy Cinema and The American Cinematheque. I’ve also worked with Cine Rediscovered, MUBI, Barbican and Sheffield Showroom on more Sofia-themed events.
My second book is due for publication in 2025, and I am currently working on my third, also with Abrams. The Modern Prometheus: Yorgos Lanthimos will be released in Autumn 2026. I have more non-fiction and fiction ideas – I do not have an agent but am open to hearing from them!
