about

my story

My work has presented me with many wonderful opportunities to travel and meet with amazing people all over the world. Film and photography are very powerful tools which can give people the chance to share their voices when they want to be heard. I take my time to connect with people, listen to their stories and then together, we can create something which represents their life honestly. I have found that no matter where people are from in the world, we all have things in common and share in the struggles and joys of everyday life. Through my work I am aiming to make and show connections between us all, and I believe video and photos are great tools to bring emotions alive, to learn about each other to inspire and be inspired.

In my work as a filmmaker and video editor I have expertise in producing high quality videos for broadcast, cinema and exhibitions.
