I’m known for making shows with heart and humour. I have a strong ents background but I really love finding where factual can be funny.

I'm currently Head of Development at one of C4's emerging regional indies Rock Paper. Before that I launched Woodcut’s new factual entertainment department, developing the strategy, pitching to commissioners, talking to talent. I also exec'd a 2-part doc for Nat Geo featuring Joseph Fiennes and Sir Ranulph Fiennes. 

 I’m experienced in all forms of unscripted, from development, working on location, running live studio galleries and post.

I’ve successfully developed pilots that have gone on to be commissioned, or re-vamped formats that have then successfully returned.

Before Woodcut, I worked on a travelogue with Paul Merton & Suki Webster for C5, and SP'd Britain’s Greatest Obsessions - made with Harry Hill’s company-  for Sky History.

I have fantastic on-screen talent contacts and managing them is one of my strengths. I am considered a calm, creative & cheerful leader - good at nurturing new talent & trusted with managing household names. I develop great relationships with the people I work with, so much so that years later presenters and producers still come to me with their ideas, as Chris Packham did.

In my spare time I work hard to make this industry better and more inclusive. I wrote an open letter which has had over 2000 signatures, to call for a change in how women are treated in the industry. I founded and spearheaded ‘Unseen On Screen’, an anti-bullying project which has had a huge impact in the industry, drawing on my network of contacts and working with Bectu to create an anonymous platform for freelancers.

I have worked with major talent including Joseph Fiennes, Ashley Banjo, Ant and Dec, Claudia Winkleman, Chris Packham, Joe Lycett & Alison Hammond.
