About Me...
I have 8+ years of TV experience across the realms of History, Archaeology, Travelogues and Engineering, and am confident in steering programmes from development into production.Whether traditional docs, or factual entertainment with a history, or culture centered twist, I can adapt my telly skills to a wide range of genres. I am editorially minded, with skills in interviewing, setting up shoots at home and abroad, securing tricky locations, working with celebs, sticking to tight budgets, treatment creation, working in virtual reality and with GFX, directing recon, and carrying out primary source based history and archive research.I have a strong desire to improve on screen diversity without making this a box ticking exercise, hence my large personal network of historians and experts. I have a long-term relationship with archive heavy shows.A team player, able to lead, but will jump in to help on anything that needs doing!My career highlights so far include working at Hatshepsut's temple in Egypt at dawn, after a Nile boat trip.
