Experienced, highly motivated and multi-skilled Producer/Director, Radio Producer, Broadcaster and Journalist. A storyteller and ideas person. Specialist in farming, environment and rural affairs. Nuffield Farming Scholar with a global network of contacts in food and farming. I've been a journalist for 20 years; 16 of them spent producing and directing factual TV and radio programmes (BBC One, Channel 4, BBC Radio 4, BBC World Service).
I'm;

• Calm under pressure and able to deliver ambitious, original journalism on a limited budget and fast turn-around.
• An organised and efficient edit producer (Avid) who understands how to weave a powerful narrative using voiceover, music, pace and creative storytelling;
• Used to leading a team in the office and on location, directing high-profile on-screen talent and crews;
• An experienced and skilled radio producer and presenter with my own recording equipment and proficient in a range of editing software.
• Specialist knowledge in farming, environment and rural affairs. Nuffield Farming Scholar with a global network of contacts. Published author (Divide: The relationship crisis between town and country, Kyle Books, 2023).
