CAREER  HIGHLIGHTS

After graduating from university, I immediately began a career in video production, starting as a Playback Technician for TV shows like BBC One's ‘The Hustle’ and a Ken Loach film, ‘Route Irish,’ in 2012. That same year, I was selected from 1000 applicants to work on a food and wine TV show, which I filmed for over six months across South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and South America.  

​

Since then, I have worked as a Lighting Camera Operator on various projects in the commercial and social media sectors. My notable work includes collaborating with Ronaldo, filming a documentary on Lionel Messi for BBC, filming Dynamo for SKY One, and shooting a campaign for musician Sam Fender for Barbour International.
