About Me

I’ve crafted a vast variety of compelling content, ranging from award-winning blue-chip natural history and conservation films, to behind-the-scenes shorts and animated storyboards for visual effects.

Quick but patient, I’m a multi-skilled perfectionist who loves finding innovative ways to distil complex topics into inspiring stories.

Whilst I’m currently based in Bristol in the UK, I love to travel for work and embrace the diverse challenges that that brings, be it within the dry heat of the African savanna, or the icy chill of Alaskan wilderness.

My preferred software is Avid Media Composer, but am very experienced with several other NLE software packages, including Adobe Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Studio and Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve.
