I am an experienced Senior Producer working across observational documentaries, specialist factual, arts, and fact-entertainment. My work spans arts, travel, crime, science with experience across a wide range of national and international businesses and institutions. I have built strong relationships to secure and manage sensitive access.
Most recently, I produced the third instalment of the BBC Two arts series Rob and Rylan’s Greek Odyssey, exploring the influence and lessons of Ancient Greece and whether this ancient world holds the answers to problems facing the modern world. I have also produced three series of the BBC’s Amazing Hotels: Life Beyond the Lobby, leading teams across diverse global locations and overseeing editorial, casting, access, logistics, schedules and more.
International filming has been a consistent and much-loved part of my career. I bring a background spanning both documentary and drama, and I’m passionate about creating meaningful, engaging content with compassion, heart, and a bit of humour.
