​

Jen, who was born and raised in London, made her first short film at the Beijing Film Academy before returning to the UK to graduate with a degree in Film & TV from the University of Bristol.

 

She crews on Film, TV and commercials all the while writing and directing character driven stories.

 

Her films, which she creates under the umbrella Studio Limpet, focus on characters who feel misunderstood or unheard and explore societal issues often through an off beat and quirky lens.

​

Her short film "Apocalypse Anytime Now", funded by the Roundhouse and Ex-Animo foundation, won Best National Film at the Making Waves Film Festival. Her latest films "My Grief isn't Grief Enough" and BIFA-qualified "Discord", winner of the Other Brother Studios film fund, are now screening at festivals worldwide.

 

Jen saw longlisted for the London Library Emerging Writers Programme and her next short "Leftovers" has been shortlisted for numerous funds. She has several live action and animation shorts, and a debut feature screenplay in development.

She is a member of BAFTA connect, Directors UK, Cinesisters and Primetime.
