I am a Dublin-based documentary filmmaker creating films about environmental and social change. My work explores the relationships between people, nature, community, and place. Through creative documentary, participatory filmmaking, and visual storytelling, I work with communities, environmental groups, and organisations to tell stories rooted in resilience, care, and belonging.<br/><br/>My films combine environmental themes, human stories, and collaborative processes to reveal the emotional and ecological realities of everyday life. I focus on environmental justice, urban ecology, women’s experiences, and the lived truths of communities navigating change.
