About


I’m a multi-disciplined director, producer, cinematographer, and drone operator with nearly two decades of experience creating high-impact, character-driven content across a broad range of broadcast and digital formats.

Originally from London and now based in the United States, I came up through the traditional UK television system, starting as a runner and progressing through the ranks to series director. That journey provided me with a deep understanding of every stage of the production process, from development and filming through to post-production and delivery.

My editorial background has always gone hand in hand with a passion for shooting. As a result, I bring a rare combination of strong storytelling instincts and technical expertise. I’m equally comfortable operating a multi-camera setup, drones, audio, and lighting in the field as I am directing, scripting, producing, and shaping stories in the edit suite.

Over the course of my career, I’ve worked across some of the industry's most successful unscripted formats, taking projects from initial concept through to final delivery. I’ve directed and produced original documentaries, led large-scale factual entertainment shows, and worked on everything from survival and adventure programming to observational documentaries and food series.

My work has taken me around the world, filming in environments as varied as remote Alaska, the jungles of Central America, the deserts of the Middle East, and major cities across Asia, Europe, and North America. Whether operating in sub-zero temperatures, extreme heat, or challenging remote locations, I’m experienced in delivering high-quality content under demanding conditions.

Career highlights include work on major productions such as the TV show Extracted, as well as acclaimed series including The Island with Bear Grylls and Hunted. I’ve also had the opportunity to work across the culinary world on shows with talent including Jamie Oliver and Tom Kerridge.

Since relocating to the United States, I founded Market Yard Films, where I continue to develop and pitch original programming through industry partnerships and agency representation while working across major network productions. This allows me to maintain both the creative and commercial disciplines of modern content creation.

In addition to broadcast television, I have a healthy dollop of experience producing branded and commercial content for leading brands, including Fast Company, Inc. Magazine, and Shell.

What I bring to every project is a combination of creativity, adaptability, and practical production knowledge. I pride myself on finding inventive ways to tell compelling stories while delivering maximum value for clients and productions of all sizes. My broad production experience enables me to identify efficiencies, solve problems quickly, and consistently deliver high-quality results within budget.

Whether you need a director, producer, cinematographer, drone operator, or a versatile storyteller who can oversee a project from concept to completion, I’d love to help bring your story to life.
