Meet the mentor

Before getting into film, I was a DJ/Producer, and even ran a label, Iron Box Music, from 2001-2008.
But my dream was always to be a storyteller and filmmaker. After attending the London Film School, I started Iron Box Films in 2007. The company grew and even started a new sister company Element 26 Ltd to exclusively make promotional video content for multiple sectors. Iron Box Films would focus on feature films and TV.
In 2011, I got to direct my first feature film, Betsy & Leonard, which garnered 9 award nominations and 5 wins on the European Festival Circuit, including one for Best Director. My second feature film, the horror comedy Ravers, starring Georgia Hirst (Vikings) and Natasha Henstridge (Species), premiered at FrightFest 2018 and is available on all digital platforms.
Lately, I’ve undertaken writing feature screenplays, the first of which is the historical drama Oxygéne.
