Having worked in documentaries for most of my career, I have returned to work as an edit producer in factual television working in True Crime, which I've found to be extremely varied. I've worked on a cold case narrative, a recent domestic violence story and a high adrenaline series of police chases in America so far and have enjoyed the challenges that each present. I am keen to expand the genres that I am offered as I have a keen interest in the world around us, socially and politically and well as historically, artisically and scientifically. 

Recently, I worked as an archive producer on an arts documentary for Sky. I had to identify a large amount of footage and clear it in a short space of time. I loved the challenge of getting the director what they wanted in the time, for the money. I would like to carry on expanding my career into archive producing if the opportunity arose.

Previously, I was predominantly making documentaries both as series producer and director. The films I worked on were mostly about ordinary people in Britain and abroad and I was very fortunate to be part of the ongoing, award-winning 7UP series of films in Britain, Russia and South Africa. In these films we revisited the same people every seven years, often in very difficult and dangerous circumstances. The challenge in the edit was to pick out the narrative for each character over the course of many years, whilst making a coherent story and composite portrait of the country they live in. 

I love all aspects of production but particularly enjoy the edit - a time to digest all of the material and present it in a way that will engage the viewer.  I am comfortable with and without commentary, I have experience with drama reconstruction, graphics, music and archive and I have a lot of experience in post production - so I can take projects through final post. 

I enjoy working in a team, am hard-working and very conscious of budgets and schedules. Read Less
