He has written many optioned tv treatments and optioned screenplays, and is also the co author of Playing With Death. He directs corporate videos for Code-Switch Consultants and genre narrative shorts, such as JESTER.

This short was official selection at: Shock Fest, Haunted House Fear Fest (nominee), 13 Horror.com (honourable mention), Dead Northern Horror and LA1 Shorts.
His next ambitious short film JESTER: THE LAST LAUGH was shot on Black Magic 6K and is being submitted to festivals now.
