Hi, I’m Niki
I’m a Cardiff-based writer & director and actor occasionally doubling in music.
I make films about hungry-for-life outcasts trying their best to make it in a world not made for them. Telling stories that challenge people to think and on occasion make them change their minds is what my work is all about.
If I’m not working on a creative project you’ll probably find me on some sort of a crazy trail run, covered in mud, giggling like a lunatic.
You could say I thrive on a challenge…
Current projects:
– Short drama “Starved” in pre-production. Shortlisted for Film Cymru’s Beacons 2024 scheme. Produced in association with Coup the Duke.
– Short drama “Runaway” in pre-production. Filming in winter 2025.
– Short comedy “Till Death Do Us Part?” in development.
– Short post-apocalyptic Czech-Welsh language dramedy “Underneath” in development.
– Concept album “Chapters From The Green Book” – demos in the making.
