heres a photo of her taken before the premiere screening of her latest short animated film 'The Nest'

"I really enjoyed my trip to Vancouver International Film Festival for the N.American premiere of The Nest! The cinemas were packed, the screenings went well and I met some really interesting directors and saw some fantastic films. All in all a fantastic experience although I ended up slightly worse for wear from all the festival’s free parties!"
