I adore story-telling and revel in creating emotionally engaging, 
innovative and noisey films, demonstrated when I originated a series 
format, commissioned by the BBC as a now award-winning, four-part 
series. I am passionate about accessible story-telling, delivering 
new ideas to the public perspective and uplifting marginalised voices. 
I love to step into the world of a contributor and seek out their 
incredible story. I have worked on a vibrant plethora of projects from 
producing top on screen talent all the way to overseeing 
high-risk shoots with Chicago gang leaders on the street and within 
jail.

I have produced and hosted a podcast, ‘Close-Up’, have delivered and 
presented panels, and have written and produced for the likes of MIF, 
Nike, Asos and Sevenstore. Recently, I have also been spotlighted by 
Women in Journalism.
