I have over 15 years’ experience developing and producing documentaries and factual series for UK and international broadcasters including Channel 4, BBC Storyville, Discovery, National Geographic, Sundance Channel, Channel 5 and others.

Previous documentary credits include:

My Dead Body, (‘the most moving television of the year’, The Telegraph), about Toni Crews, a young mother who donated her body for public dissection.

Holding Space, a Film London-funded short about end-of-life doulas.

The Biggest Chinese Restaurant in the World, a feature doc and series that went behind the scenes at the 5000-seater Westlake restaurant in Changsha, directed by the multi-award-winning Chinese director Weijun Chen (Please Vote For Me).

Up for Debate-Team Qatar, directed by Liz Mermin, that followed a teenage debating team from the Middle East as they trained and competed in the World Schools Debating Championships (‘Absolutely lovely’, ‘A treat’, The Guardian. Best Film Award at the Doha Tribeca Film Festival)

A particular niche of mine is specialist factual and I’m skilled in finding the story in complex subject matter—whether archaeology, science, history, engineering or medicine. I’ve worked on a number of popular returning series as a producer, director and/or edit producer include Lost Cities with Albert Lin (National Geographic); How Do They Do It? and What on Earth? (Science Channel/ Discovery).

Being a fluent Spanish speaker, my work often takes me to Latin America. I’ve filmed at barely-explored Mayan and Incan archaeological sites, along the US-Mexico border and with border protection agents in Puerto Rico. I’ve also interviewed scientists, actors, writers, the mother of a murder victim, Swedish axe makers, staff at a Vegas hotel and many more.

As well as factual and documentaries, I produce and consult on scripted and experimental independent films. I produced the short Kids Might Fly, directed by Spaceship’s Alex Taylor (selected for BFI London Film Festival, SXSW). And I worked with artist and filmmaker Roz Mortimer on the genre-crossing The Deathless Woman that was funded by Film London’s FLAMIN scheme and the Arts Council (selected for BFI London Film Festival).
