I work independently on a freelance basis for a range of TV production companies in London and Bristol. Whether you need a Producer / Director for one episode or a specialist across an entire series, I’d love to collaborate.

BAFTA-nominated Producer and Producer/Director with over 12 years’ experience crafting ambitious, character-led documentaries and factual storytelling across adventure, documentary, factual entertainment, and natural history. My work blends strong editorial judgement with a sharp instinct for character and story, identifying compelling narratives and shaping them on location as they unfold. I specialise in working in extreme environments (jungles, deserts, mountains, polar), often in hard-to-reach places with sensitive access. Whether working with new contributors or A-list talent, I combine creative vision with practical expertise to shape stories. From scuba dives and cave descents to jungle canopy climbs and mountain treks, I’m equally comfortable leading small, agile crews into never-before-filmed locations or steering 50+ person teams through some of the most challenging environments on Earth.
