I am a very experienced, versatile and creative Producer / Director and Series Producer / Director specialising in high end presenter led factual and factual entertainment series.

With a passion for travel, adventure, food and music I have filmed all over the world, making programmes spanning a diverse range of subjects - from rock stars writing songs with the world's most remote tribes to go-karting kids who dream of becoming F1 racing drivers.

Along the way I've also directed a life affirming single doc about a Mississippi man born with no legs, filmed an expedition across South America, and made an Indiana Jones inspired adventure archaeology series.

I've fed Robson Green to great white sharks, shared a Moroccan hammam with Gordon Ramsay, dangled Richard Hammond off the top of the world's tallest building, taken Chris Tarrant to Chernobyl, and asked national treasure Penelope Keith to judge a custard pie throwing competition in a village in Kent.

Whatever the content or wherever the location, I have a proven track record of delivering strong, thoughtful and entertaining films - and bringing the best out of high profile presenters, new talent and countless contributors. 

I've been personally nominated for a BAFTA for Robson's Extreme Fishing Challenge; and directed Emmy Award winning series Jose Andres and Family in Spain; and Emmy shortlisted series Lost Cities Revealed with Albert Lin.

I am extremely proud of my programmes and I'm excited about what may lie in wait on a future project.
