I am an outgoing person who loves a good chat and can engage with anyone who will listen. I bring curiosity and energy to every project, especially when it involves uncovering stories from the past. In my work as a documentary filmmaker and researcher, I enjoy turning complex histories into engaging narratives that resonate with audiences. In my spare time I enjoy reading, going to the gym, hiking in the Peak District or with my dogs, and I’m a major movie buff who loves horror. I also value family time and am open to relocating, commuting, travelling, and remote work.…I am an outgoing person who loves a good chat and can engage with anyone who will listen.
