About

Series Producer/Series Director/Show Runner with 25 years of experience in a wide range of programming, including character-led observational documentaries and formatted genres. Specifically, I have a strong track record of running shows in Alaska. I have earned a reputation as someone who thrives in any situation and brings out the best in contributors. I thoroughly enjoy immersing myself in challenging scenarios. With a background in print journalism, I possess a keen sense for storytelling and excel at extracting narrative threads. I take pride in my ability to delve into the heart of a story and encourage complete honesty from the characters involved. As a director, I have developed a distinctive visual style and possess extensive experience in both self-shooting and directing. I am highly skilled in the editing process and have successfully delivered multiple series. Through my work and personal experiences, I have become a specialist in building trust and confidence with contributors. As well as London UK, Anchorage, Alaska serves as my base, and I maintain an extensive network of contacts across the state that would prove invaluable when establishing Alaskan-based TV shows. I am deeply passionate about fully immersing myself in the storytelling process, and I bring a wealth of expertise and connections to every project I undertake. I eagerly look forward to discussing potential opportunities further and exploring how my skills and experiences align with your vision.
