BIO

As a writer, Andrew’s short story Hold won the 2024 Oxford Flash Fiction Prize. The judges commented, ‘This is flash fiction at its best – every word counts, and combined, this piece penetrates the heart.’

As a director of documentaries, Andrew’s film Sons of Cuba won multiple awards, including the British Documentary Association Grierson Award for Best Newcomer. Variety called it ‘A knockout debut’ and Hollywood Reporter said, ‘It has all the elements of an arthouse hit.’

As a director of commercials, Andrew’s film Love Story won the D&AD Award and The Shots Award for Best Cinema Commercial. Campaign Magazine called it ‘Masterfully directed.’’

If he’s not writing or directing, he’s with his wife and son in East London. When the child sleeps, he reads, watches films, and strokes his chin.
