I am an author and filmmaker with a BFA in Stop
Motion Animation from the School of Visual Arts in New York and a PhD in Film
Studies from the University of Edinburgh (Scotland, UK). Raised by an
Egyptologist mother, I grew up among museums and excavation sites, where I
developed an unhealthy fascination with ancient art and mythology. I divide my time between bringing 12”-tall people to life in my studio in Edinburgh,
excavating ancient tombs in the Egyptian desert, and researching Gothic
literary monsters in silent film. I have published
numerous articles
on film and archaeology and my independent short films have screened at
various international film festivals including the Edinburgh Fringe.
My debut novel, Digging in the Stars, will be published by Blaze Publishing in March 2017.
