This is the beginning of Kathryn’s directing journey. Having recently completed the Directors Series short course at NFTS, Silence marks her directorial debut. With over ten years of industry experience, she brings a wealth of expertise both in front of and behind the camera, as well as on stage, drawing on a strong background in theatre.

Kathryn has worked extensively as a First Assistant Director on television shows such as Testament, The Cockfields, and Deep Fake Neighbour Wars, and on over 70 short films, including Channel 4 short Person of Interest starring Asim Chaudhry and Julia Davis; Largo (2024) starring Tamsin Greig; award-winning What We Wished We Could Be (2024); Alice (2024) and The Colour of My Room (2024); Ceres (2022) starring Juliet Stevenson; Fifty-Four Days (2022) starring Cat White and Celia Imrie; and Sir Isaac Julien’s art-house film Once Again…(Statues Never Die), screened at Tate Britain, starring André Holland and Sharlene Whyte. She has also produced works including the short documentary Beyond the Divide (2025), which premiered at Raindance and is available on Netflix’s YouTube channel, and the award-winning LGBT+ short 175 (2024).

A trained actor (LAMDA, BA Hons), Kathryn has toured nationally and internationally with theatre productions and appeared on screen in Random (BAFTA-winning TV film), Call The Midwife (BBC), Grantchester (ITV), Lewis (ITV), and Holby City (BBC). She is passionate about the arts as a catalyst for discussion and change, and her work seeks to explore themes that resonate deeply with audiences, tackling challenging and meaningful stories such as abuse, grooming, and societal issues.
