I am a particularly versatile and multi-skilled Casting and Welfare Executive / Series Producer with over 14 years experience in the Television industry.
My extensive casting background in Reality, Entertainment and Fact Ent, has given me the expertise to not only find and deliver fresh and exciting talent with a story to tell, but to lead and manage large-scale teams effectively and efficiently.
On screen inclusivity and diversity is paramount, and I am passionate that the casting teams delivering that talent, are just as inclusive. I can quickly build and maintain strong, trusting relationships with contributors, and I consider the welfare and duty of care throughout the entire production and filming process, extremely important.
I have worked on many first and returning series, to tight schedules and on quick turnaround projects.
Having had previous experience working in recruitment, this has given me another understanding of an entirely different industry, but one that has helped me develop and maintain important transferable skills in to television.
