About
I am a 23 yr old documentary filmmaker, after creating a short documentary in 2021 about the realities, preconceptions and onscreen presentation of female autism and also co-creating a doc-series in 2017-18 about ADHD in children and the progression of that along with the dangers of misdiagnosis/lack of diagnoses in adulthood.
I want to bring understanding and awareness to social issues that can positively impact peoples’ lives. Am also a big believer that documentaries are becoming the way young people choose to receive/ delve deeper into topics news outlets usually tend not to pick up and educate themselves.
