I’ve spent over two decades making high-profile factual television for major UK broadcasters and global streamers.

Across more than 70 hours of prime-time output, I’ve worked as Series Producer, Series Director, Director and Edit Producer — leading teams, shaping editorial direction and delivering ambitious series and singles.

My work ranges from true crime and archive-led retrospectives to access documentaries and popular formats. Whatever the genre, the focus is the same: clarity of story, strong tone, careful handling of contributors and delivery to a high editorial standard.

I’m used to operating in complex environments — managing legal and compliance frameworks, navigating institutional access and overseeing multiple edits simultaneously. At the same time, I remain closely involved in craft: directing crews, conducting sensitive interviews and shaping narrative structure in the edit.

My work has won BAFTA, RTS and Broadcast Awards, and been shortlisted for a Grierson.
