Often described as a “walking IMDb”, Aileen graduated from Royal Holloway University with a degree in Drama and Theatre. She worked for several music festivals and an Edinburgh Festival Fringe venue before moving into film and TV. 

After getting her MA in Filmmaking Business and Producing at Met Film, Aileen went freelance, producing Adjani Salmon’s His Father’s Son and other short films, before working on the production of Daphne, the debut feature of Peter Mackie Burns.

In 2016 she joined The Bureau as a Producer’s Assistant and then moved into the role of Production Coordinator, working on films including After Love, Lean on Pete, Supernova and True Things. 

Aileen joined Big Talk in September and is excited to be finally making some TV.
