ABOUT ME
I am a self-shooting producer/director working across major long form wildlife, social impact and observational documentaries, and have worked on programmes involving complex underwater shoot logistics, international locations, and highly sensitive environments.​​
​
My focus lies in storytelling with a purpose, whether that's producing across impact campaigns (SBS's Backtrack Boys, BBC's Green Planet & Frozen Planet II), or working on documentaries that have the potential to alter audience perspective and highlight issues otherwise gone unheard.
