About me
Award-winning documentary filmmaker (Grierson & RTS nominated) and graduate of The National Film & Television School. I have experience in shooting hard-hitting contributor led obs docs about tough and serious subject matters - executed with both sound judgment and sensitivity. My greatest strengths are my ability to shoot instinctively – both engaging with contributors and inspiring trust in them. My experience of directing and editing means that I can shoot scenes effectively for strong narrative. I’m currently working as a Shooting Assistant Producer and DV Director, whilst developing ideas with a view to making more obs docs as Producer/Director.Referees:

Additional information:
I’m a proficient and instinctive self-shooting AP/DV Director with competent knowledge of camera and sound. I have experience across a variety of platforms and my greatest strengths lie in shooting character driven observational documentaries, especially within sensitive environments.
I’m passionate about telling stories and constantly thinking how to reshape them into fresh and visually creative forms. I also have sound editing experience thus understanding the necessary grammar of shooting scenes effectively for strong narrative.
I pride myself in being able to keep a level head in sensitive and stressful situations and I have a charming personality both engaging contributors and inspiring trust in them. Outside of shooting I have fantastic organisational skills with solid experience of juggling logistics. I have a Masters background in Anthropology and I'm professionally trained at The National Film & TV School (UK) in Documentary Directing.
