I love sharing my knowledge and guiding others. My most rewarding career experience so far has been taking part in the @creativementornetwork Break the Wall programme, which champions diversity in the workplace.

 

First, we received mentor coaching – learning about the difficulties that talented young people of low socio-economic backgrounds face on their career path within the creative industry, and how best to support them with growth, development and new opportunities. Then we began work with our assigned mentees.

 

I was paired with young TV scriptwriter @writtenbyjess who, despite the difficulties and limitations of Covid 19’s lockdown, smashed her goal of writing and directing her brilliant debut TV pilot. We’re still working together and I can’t wait to see what she achieves next.

I am very proud of the fact that I made my first short film this year. With the help and drive from my mentor Claire Henderson I was able to get to one of my major career checkpoints.

Claire's caring and supportive nature has made me become more confident in myself.  If someone as intelligent as her see's any potential in me then I'd be a fool not to see it as well.

She's helped me with my ability to organise.  From learning more about the creative industry it is evident that a lack of organisation skills could be the make or break of any project
