Graduated with BA Honors in Photography, Film & Television from Harrow College, Middlesex University, UK.

Rosa Fong's short film (Red) was and remains one of the very few British films to examine a British-Chinese culture clash on a level other than a comedic one.

Rosa and I met in the early 90s when we were both filmmakers struggling to get the voice of the Chinese heard on film. She is one of the earliest Chinese filmmaker in this country and a great asset to this film.
