I work as a story producer and filmmaker, developing documentary and character-driven stories from early editorial concept through filming and edit. My projects often explore culture, travel, sport and identity, built through close access and long-form observation. Recent work spans international broadcast, digital documentary and independent productions across multiple countries. Earlier in my career, I worked extensively in commercial and branded content for global clients — experience that shaped my visual discipline, storytelling clarity and production efficiency. I’m open to editorial collaborations, co-productions and documentary projects that value access, trust and time.
