I am a confident and considerate documentary senior producer and self-shooting director with a wealth of experience spanning multiple channels. My primary focus is on creating landmark, sensitive access, and observational documentaries. I have an unshakable passion for storytelling and a genuine curiosity for delving into the lives of people and places that are new and different.

My expertise lies in editorial work, where I excel at identifying, filming, and producing strong narrative threads that captivate audiences. I am also known for my exceptional interpersonal skills and have a solid reputation for building trust and rapport with the individuals I film, allowing me to ask challenging questions while ensuring continued access.

I possess a keen eye for identifying compelling characters and contributors, crucial for building engaging series. As a trusted and assertive self-shooter, I create high-quality actuality sequences that drive narratives and conduct meaningful and informative interviews, whether in dynamic, "on-the-fly" situations or carefully arranged setups. I have worked with a range of cameras, including the Sony FX6, and can adapt to different equipment as needed.

Additionally, I am accomplished as an access producer, having successfully secured access to many major institutions. In particular, my contributions to the "Hospital" series underscore my proficiency in securing access to sensitive and critical environments.

Having dedicated many years exclusively to producing, I have a comprehensive understanding of compliance, and in some cases, my sole responsibility was as a compliance producer.

I am a team player with a strong work ethic and a level-headed approach, even in the face of unusual, sensitive, and high-pressure situations, benefiting both contributors and team members alike. I also hold a valid I-visa.

My previous credits include working on several high-profile, sensitive access observational documentary series for leading broadcasters such as the BBC and Channel 4, with some films earning BAFTA and Grierson nominations.
