Profile

Hobbies/Activities
My work is my hobby and vice versa!! I love to watch films; go to the movies and see them on the big screen, I love to see children and young people succeed and make their own films and then be able to take pride in screening their work to other people.
I also love to run especially in the Great North Run that takes place in Newcastle every October. Lastly, I really like to travel and experience other places, peoples and their cultures - it's inspiring.

What kinds of things do you want to connect with?
I want to connect with arts and media organisations all over the world. Share work, thoughts and feelings and if there are opportunities to work together internationally on youth media projects - even better!

If you could hang out with any five people, dead or alive, who would they be?
Paula Radcliffe
Jacques Tati
Ellen MaCarthur
Joanna Lumley
The whole Monty Python Team
