Her most recent narrative short 'Waiting ' has won the Intel/Movidiam award for Best Director and best experimental student film at TIFF (Tatsuno), whilst grabbing the attention of renowned filmmakers such as Barry Jenkins and Nicholas Britell.

Having made work as a Director & Art Director for the likes of Sony Music, Dazed Magazine, Burberry, NOWNESS and more, she is always searching for new ways to express her creativity and imagination in out-of-the-box manners - as well as connecting people through a shared sense of memory.

She also smells really good.
