Recent credits include Big Zuu Goes to Mecca (BBC2), hailed by The Guardian as “a quietly revolutionary portrait of Islam” (★★★★★) and Manhunt (C4) following an elite police unit. I also filmed across the BAFTA-winning series The Detectives (BBC2). A skilled self-shooter, I have made programmes for Netflix, Nat Geo, The BBC and Channel 4 in a career spanning over 20 years, as well as working on international feature docs from The Trouble with Mr Doodle (ACME Films & Lightbox) to Street Kids United, which premiered at the Berlin Film Festival.
