Be it in Paris, LA, London or Glasgow, Maureen feels most at home in a film studio, at the heart of a thriving filmmaking community. Be it in training, producing / directing, or activism, what Maureen enjoys above all else is gathering the right group of people to create a positive transformation.
Scotland lit up the entrepreneurial spark in Maureen, who is now known not only for setting up, producing and curating TEDx Cumbernauld Women for 3 years, and making WWII short 'The Elementals', but also for her passion in setting up the right environment for the screen industry to flourish - starting initiatives that hold space for industry-lead conversations.
​
The movie that made her want to become a filmmaker is Kevin Costner's 'Dances with Wolves'.
