Hailing from Jamaica, Adjani is a writer-director and actor who only writes “what he likes”. As well as an avid reader, he spends his time people-watching, eavesdropping and randomly chatting up strangers, not putting his Architecture degree to good use.

In 2022, the pilot for BBC3’s TV adaptation of his web series Dreaming Whilst Black garnered critical acclaim winning an RTS and BAFTA Award for Breakthrough and Emerging Talent respectively. In collaboration with A24, Season 1 is available globally (including being spotted in an illegal DVD shop in Uganda) with Season 2 out now. Despite his accolades, Adjani is most proud of the fact that he can finally pay rent from his once passion turned profession.
