Heather is a screen writer and a producer for factual television. She escaped London life to a farm in Northern Ireland where she now lives with her partner, 9 chickens, 5 goats, 3 cats and 2 kids.
Her pitch for her idea The Peace Makers, based on the formation of the Womans Coalition Party around the post-Good Friday Agreement Northern Irish Assembly elections won the pitching prize at the IFTV in 2023 and is being developed for television by Double Band Films.
Heather is developing a number of ideas for television including a drama about Northern Irish pensioner widow who finds herself undergoing a late life reinvention as a hitwoman and a sitcom based on a couple who downsize to rural Northern Ireland that is loosely based on her own experience.
“Her writing has a bit of that early years Sally Wainwright vibe to it with a touch of Vic Wood… great voice in the writing.” – Gregor Sharp (BBC Comedy Commissioner)
