I've been making films since I was 13. By 15 I was speaking in the European Parliament. At 18 I was on Kilimanjaro with world-renowned climate scientists as lead producer. I live on the edges of society, of comfort zones, of the places most people don't go. That's where the best stories are. And I know how to bring them back.
For nearly a decade I have run Spend More Time In The WILD, one of the longest runniung outdoor adventure YouTube Channels in the world, entirely solo, operating as a self-shooting director-presenter across long-form documentary, short-form digital content and live events, while managing all production, post-production, distribution and audience development independently. My channel has accumulated over 13 million views, an audience that many regional television programmes would recognise.
I am an experienced location filmmaker in extreme and remote environments, a nurturing on-camera presence who puts contributors at ease, and a storyteller who understands that the best outdoor films are about people as much as landscape. I have early industry experience from shadowing BBC productions, have appeared on BBC One primetime, and have directed hired camera operators on multi-day shoots. I am physically robust, calm under pressure, and I do not stop when conditions get hard.
