I am a writer, editor and film critic based in Melbourne, Australia. I completed my doctoral thesis on the films of Crispin Glover in 2019, and have not tired of the subject yet; I am currently working on a collection of essays about Hollywood’s greatest on-screen eccentrics.

If so inclined, you can read my work in a variety of publications, including the Metrograph Journal, Reverse Shot, Screen Slate, and MUBI Notebook.
