Grace’s directorial approach is unapologetically bold, pairing striking visual choices with emotive performances. From commercials and content to narrative and documentary, she prioritises authentic storytelling. Grace has an innate ability to approach complex subjects with sensitivity, while also relishing any opportunity to inject her sense of humour, either on screen or behind the scenes.
Grace’s career began in production. Notably, she produced Adele, which was awarded Best Live Action Short at Sydney Film Festival in 2017, amongst many other accolades. Following this success, she set her sights on the creative and stepped into the role of director. She was quickly recognised for her unique style, directing her first national TVC in 2020. The same year, her feminist brand film Brutal was selected for the Melbourne Fashion Film Awards and received widespread press.
Soon after, Grace relocated from her hometown to undertake a Masters at the prestigious Australian Film Television and Radio School. In Sydney, she collaborated with showrunner Nikki Brown on two comedy web series. Grace also directed Contrition, a short film which premiered at Sydney Underground Film Festival in 2023. She has since returned to live and work in Brisbane.
