Charlotte loves a good story and enjoys writing commissioned film and television whilst developing original features and TV series. In another life she lived in New York, where, shortly after arriving she was awarded a grant to make a short film. This led to commissions to write for independent film and television companies. Whilst in the US, Charlotte also worked in development for Lions Gate and Tribeca Films and as Development Executive for multi award winning producer, Peter Newman. Moving back to the UK, Charlotte completed the screenwriting MA at LCC under Phil Parker and started writing for BBC Doctors, she is now a core writer. Charlotte’s original drama screenplays have twice made the finals of the Red Planet Prize and the BBC Writersroom. Recently Charlotte steered the iFeatures film Apostasy to greenlight and she’s currently working with EMU Films (producers of Jawbone, Catch Me Daddy, The Goob) on original and re-write feature projects.

Charlotte works across genres – often leaning towards psychological thriller. Her passion is to create compelling worlds and complex characters driven to extremes to find connection and belonging.
