Cheryl studied drama, film and tv at the University of Bristol then joined the BBC where she worked in film production for several years on major series like Horizon, Bergerac, 40 Minutes.  She left to have a family and taught filmmaking to students at Westminster University (PCL) and Harrow Film School as well as ex-offenders at a media project in Notting Hill Gate where she made a short film for Frank Critchlow about police harassment in the area. Paul Boateng screened the film in the House of Commons and this led to a cooling off of the police operation.

She produced and directed several short films winning a Gold Remi from Houston Worldfest, and winning Best Documentary, Best Short Film and Best Foreign Film at various other film festivals in USA. She also had a film screened in Vue Cinema and nominated for Best Short Film at Raindance in London.
